Default Re: Zylvan, another new man in my life!

Thanks Lizzy & Fluffagrams, I'm sure I will get there eventually with the little guy & I know I'm stressing a bit over it right now, just can't quite decide which way to tackle things, my instinct is to change things now before he gets even more set in his ways & put the bendy bridge in so I can at least get him used to my hand being close to him & offer him treats when he tries to hide for starters!

I'm not sure I can call Zeki lazy as he seems to run in his wheel virtually all night long but I don't see that much of him & he is quite reclusive except in the morning when he begs for treats & can't get enough of me cheeky guy!

That's the problem right there really, if I can't wake him without him getting really scared & he chooses to only come out at night we won't progress & he'll continue to get stressed whenever I need to do anything.

It is still early days so I'm thinking positive now!

Thanks barley, I hope he thinks he's a lucky ham!
