Rory and Roxy


« Reply #45 on: June 08, 2009, 03:46:17 pm »

you know my bonding plans gone out the window completely dunno what lunas done to rory but hes not fused about me at all (nice work), im naughty and did go in there cage on day 1 to put food in and from then was a spring board tree in there cage can you let me know how you would say things are going?

Rory<<<<---- That should say rory, from the momment he got in the car will take food from my hand.

Rory will come to the frount of pouch when im around day one he was a bit shaky once he was in the cage but after they came out and explored and realised they where fine and then got all excited, today i gave him a treat for coming to see me then an hour later i walked past and he shot to the front and chirped as if to say OI IM HERE WHEREs MY TREAT!!

When in the cage espically today rory got higher and higer and jumped to my arm when i held it out then he went a lil higher then my chest was the target (he ran around and around doing it over n over) then a lil higher and yay pin prick face hugs three times

Rory will also let me stroke him and today again i was naughty had them in pouch under my jumper and rory was walking around in my top but didnt leave it and stole a yog drop from my hand they run around me in the cage all excited.

Roxy (female) still crabby while in pouch and steals rorys treat when he goes to the back till she decids she wonds one and take it from me instead then back to the back and sleepie time.

Roxy will take food from my hand but only papya and cat biccis which i take out there food bowl when i get the trat given tossed at me, but she is alot more jumpy with my hand movements shes fin on my shoulders and will run onto the back of my hand but a finger movment scares her is shes close and she jumps from a close distance onto me.

i had to get a chair out the cage earlier as i decided to sit in there for a bit ...)1hr.20min) when i took it out she jumped to my lg then to the outside of the mesh i didnt want to chase her round because she would have just got scared (as she dosent like touching yet) so i watched her closly then after a bit of running around i showed her the puch she came in which seems to calm them for about 5 secs just while they sniff i was think right if she steps on it shes in so what happens someone opened the door which creaks, she went scatty but rather then run she was straight onto my leg (but then she runs around on it alot) then straight up my body spring off into cage next to rory and stole his papaya (which was his bribe foreat this and dont follow her)

andwho any feedback would be good i think obviously lunar didnt have the girl long so in genral i think rorys alot more trusting as he was obviously handled better but the girl was you know from the post lunar wasnt familier with but at first she was lungy when lunar got her but she doesnt really do it now unless it a hand in the pouch senario which for now im avoiding and just rewarding he for coming to the front and not crabbing


ok again i finished my post and just realised the rooms silent think they gone back to bed

Sounds like you're doing great!  RoRy is definately full of confidence and has obviously been handled well since coming OOP (credit to Lunar).  Roxy just needs time, she's nervous and jumpy as she's moved home twice in a short space of time. I'd say she's been socialised a bit as she will come to the hand.  Just take things slowly with her, allow her to come to you at her own pace.  Sitting in the cage with them is great - just like tent time but you haven't got the hassle of a tent!  Smiley
