Aww I'm just so over the moon with son's little snakey! We've had her for 4 weeks now and she's getting so much more adventurous. I think my son was getting a bit disillusioned (what with the 1 week leave her to settle in, first 3 weeks never seeing her out of her hides until we got her out and us being totally OTT with him, making sure he wasn't noisy/learning about handling etc). The last week or so she's been out every morning and evening exploring the faun and not being overly bothered about us being there/walking past etc. Last night she'd been exploring for a while so I got her out for a bit, put her back and she stayed out of her hides for at least 2 hours.
This morning she's been wandering about since we got up at 7, got her out 3/4 an hour ago for a good 20-30 mins and son is getting much better and more confident at handling her, plus she is obviously getting much more used to his smell and not trying to get away from him any more! Then whereas I usually clear out and set up the faun he set it up, so I think he feels he is connecting with her a lot more. She's STILL wandering about now - I'm wondering if she's getting in training for a marathon or something! It's just so lovely to see her out and about and not hiding constantly.
Anyway, I'd better stop rambling now, sorry  as you can tall I'm a bit besotted with her! |
