Luckily he actually eats those! They are part of his food mix.

Re: Introducing Orko
I checked last nights footage of Orko. He is now very very active and busy. I was shocked to see he gets between his sand box. Here is the footage. Is it safe?

Re: Introducing Orko
Do you mean the bit towards the end of the video where he is right at the front between sandbox and glass?
If that's what you're worried about i wouldn't worry because he looks like he's moving about freely. He's not pushing or squeezing himself into a gap.
Lovely to see him so active. He's happy in there.

Yes, that is the bit. I panicked and added more bedding so he could not do it again. I am terrified of him becoming stuck as he likes to go into any tiny gap. I am relieved you said it is okay.

Re: Introducing Orko
I think that it won't be too long and you'll see him during the day too.
I just sat Finley's wheel in a cardboard box so it won't get jammed up with bedding.
Shy as he is, he appeared to sniff inspect what i had been doing followed by a quick spin on the wheel before going back down his burrow.
There's no harm in gently rustling a bit of substrate when putting a treat down. He may appear to investigate. A hamster's curiosity is often stronger than their fear.

That is so cute. I actually did just move bedding but he did not come up. It will be nice if he does one day.

Re: Introducing Orko
Orko used his sandbox a lot last night. I put bridges there so he can enter and exit safely. He tries to go under the bridge and jump on to the shelf anyway! Here is a little video. He does not come back after the 56th minute.

Lol. It is like he is determined to do everything as dangerous as possible!
