Rebel’s Thread

[Mweekie]

Thought I’d start a proper thread for Rebel.

Well I’ve had Rebel now for just over 24 hours now and he’s already proving himself to be a confident little character.

I popped some fresh dry food in and added some sunflower hearts and a couple of mealworms - not expecting him to do anything or even come close but he’s surprised me by doing so - to the point of actually taking a mealworm from my finger. He did dive back under the shelf again but was back out within moments.

He’s even brave enough to have the cat staring through the glass - he just looked at her, and it looked like he had just shrugged his shoulders and continued running in his wheel lol.

Here’s a little photo of him just as he popped back up again.

Hope you enjoy the rest of Rebel’s Thread.

Rebel is a cute little fellow

He’s gorgeous . Looking forward to hearing more about him as he settles in.

I tried Rebel on a pea and a piece of sweetcorn last night - both were gone this morning. I'm taking that as a win.

He seemed a little skittish last night, so I didn't push it other than to give him his dried food, veggies and fresh water. He did come out but hid under the shelf.

I know it takes about a fortnight before they've settled in properly, so keeping things right down to a minimum for him.

He's just been out and taken some sunflower hearts where I put them on the shelf for him - I have a feeling they are his favourites lol xx

He's doing well I hope the first couple of weeks goes quickly! It can be hard waiting for them to settle in.
