So I noticed yesterday that Eloise is starting to respond to my voice and my hand in her tub....I gave her a soak and placed her back in her tub....she is always lively after a soak and so I normally give her a small snack..When I reached my hand in she was very responsive to it before I even had the food to her rock...I got a brilliant idea I will hold my hand out to her with a leaf....she walked right up and started chomping the leaf...no big deal and later she walked into my empty hand and just sat there...not wanting to interupt her moment of trust I just held my hand under her and let her enjoy sitting there. A short moment later she just walked away. Today, I walked up to her tub like normal and said "hello Eloise, what are you doing little girl?" and she slowly turned herself about in her hide (not normal yet) and poked straight out to greet me and then began to walk closer to me...I grabbed her a snack to hand feed and again she happily let me...tonight I was giving her home a spritz with water while she was in her hide and that stirred her out to inspect my comings and goings in HER home and so I decided to reach in and place my hand palm up flat on the substrate and that lil stinker walked up into my palm with no hesitation and promptly BIT my thumb!!! and surprisingly it smarts a little right after!!! but Not painful enough to stop me from laughing out loud before foolishly scolding her "No No Eloise we don't bite!!" I bet she learned her lesson!! lol oh me oh my!!!
