Wallace seems to have settled into his new home. I decided last night was the night to begin the taming process.
Wallace didn't look too impressed at the sight of my hands in his cage at first, but I guess the call of the tiny chunk of apple between my fingers was a little too hard to ignore. So he marched up to me, screeched, took the apple and screeched again as he bumbled away.
After a few minutes of sitting in his bed munching, he came back over to me and sniffed my hands. I tried to hand him a pea, and this time he took it with no screeching and promptly dropped it. But he did have a nice munch of it later on.
I didn't want to push him too far, so after about ten minutes I withdrew. Over the last few days, he's been waiting until the room is silent before coming out, but tonight he stayed out while I was in the room. He is so fast!
Taking photos wasn't easy, but here are the few that didn't come out too blurry:
Here he is eating the pea after I dropped it into his bowl:
And here are a couple of him sitting on top of the house hes refuses to use(his bed is in the opposite corner under the platform):
He looks a lot bigger than he actually is in the latter two pictures.
