Re: Introducing Helori
Well you'll have to be patient Cue. We fed last night and little Helori who should have been content settling in her new home was out in full hunt mode, lurking from her cool side hide then climbing on and off it to see where in heck her rat was. She in our bedroom but I guess was able to sense the activity in the nearby snake room or something (or was just hungry from skipping her post-ship feeding night with you). I know I should have made her wait but we figured we'd try and she hit that rat fuzzy like a little freight train.
Little piggie was looking for round #2 but I figured one fuzzy was quite enough for her this week. She's a fantastic little eater Cue. We're just thrilled with her. However that means at least 48 hours before Mikey can hold her for the requested pics.....sorry.
Oh speaking of feeding night. Robin hope you are reading this, you'll get a chuckle. We tried tricking Ailish into taking a nice white rat pup last night instead of her usual adult mouse (well two of them actually). We even put the rat pups in with the adult white mice for 30 minutes hoping to transfer smell. Heck you could hardly tell them apart visually really! Smartie pants Ailish knew though. She checked that rat out from top to bottom, getting right in it's face, then I swear she glared at me and stuck her head under a coil to pout! LOL Of course when I removed said offensive white rat pup and replaced it with a white adult mouse....WHAM!...another please...WHAM! Muirne did the same thing basically. Neither Ailish or Muirne it seems will fall for the "I"m a rat but heck I smell kinda like a mouse so you should eat me right up" thing. LOL
