Default First time Quinn gets himself up....

After a week of hiding and only getting up for food and water when i've dug him out and put him at his food or water bowl Quinn has finally gotten himself out of bed and gone for a wander!!!! YYYIIIIIPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

I sat for 4 hours basically watching him from a distance to see what he would do, caught him on camera (80 photos later) but here is just a few of them.....






Is it just me that yawns when you see them yawning???




It's a hard life!!



First successful forage of food........




Bed time...

I've now changed Quinn from Aspen to topsoil.....(very anxiously i must say!!)

Here are some photos of him checking out his new layout -













Where he has chosen to sleep tonight, would have dug down into his aspen so hoping he is warm enough and gets used to the soil.....

Nice photos. Looks like Quinn settled well. He is so quite! Topsoil is the way to go, good change.
