Hi there! Mr. Pickles has been going in his new enclosure all day and he's loving it. He stomps around, finding new places to dig himself a little hole and he sits and snoozes, he stomps around some more exploring. We've put a mixture of soil/bark in his main burrow and we've got the protective bird netting up. He's safe and secure.
Question: Will he come out of his burrow to eat? I mean, I've been so used to feeding him twice a day and giving him baths and it's freaking me out a bit to just put him out there on his own, ya know? What if we don't see him for a day cause he's been in his burrow? It still gets chilly here at night, will he be ok out there? I know his natural instincts will take over but I'm still a paranoid torti mommy worried about her reptile kid. lol
Do we still put some spring mix on a tile out there for a bit? Do we just forgo the spring mix altogether? He's got a lot of different weeds, grasses and flowers out there but he's used to the spring mix. I'm sure he's been munching on different things in his new enclosure but I can't be sure. I'm used to knowing what exactly he's eating and now I won't know.................it's nerve wracking. thanks...........
