I would stick with what he feeds with just now. Sometimes hoggies can go off their food if uncertain about anything. While hero is settling into his new surroundings, maybe best sticking with what he knows? xxx

cheers mamma. i cannot believe how small he is!!

he was on sand before, and i have him on aspen which he loves burrowing in, he is next to the sofa and he keps coming over and having a look and then zooming back under the aspen, he is so energetic compared to the corns.

amazing little man.

bless him he hissed and hooded when i topped his water up earlier.

The hoggies are definitely more entertaining than the corns. That is not to say I don't love my corns cos I do, it's just that I don't see them for 8 months of the year but the hoggies are out all the time. Mine even prefer to sleep against the side of the faun rather than in a hide

4.1.0 corns - Izzy (Carolina) Alice (Amel) Peanut (Butter Motley) Swayze (Ghost) Carmellia (Butter Motley)
0.1.0 cat - Kizzy
1.0.0 Dog - Dobbie
Location - Chesterfield, Derbyshire

I have to say, when I had Pearl in a rub, she was hiding constantly. I would never see her. Then I moved her into her current viv, she is out and about all the time. Shes always stretching up against the glass etc.

But then Romeo is one of my corns who is out and about all the time too. Mims very active also. So Im kinda lucky in that respect
