I have had it for two weeks, I was using a CHE but switched to the UTH around Tuesday. He sat in the hide over the UTH for a few days and didn't move. He hadn't had a shed since I have had him, still hasn't eaten neither.

"When a man is pushed, tormented, defeated, he has a chance to learn something; he has been put on his wits ... he has gained facts, learned his ignorance, is cured of the insanity of conceit, has got moderation and real skill".
