My boys have settled in famously, and I've finally gotten over my kidney stone fiasco. I snapped a few quick pics before I cleaned their cage, so excuse the pooey shelves. It's the only place they DO poo, and I have to shake them off daily.
I finally got the right hardware for shelves, and we found some nice, big old pine trunks to make some shelves for them. They were dead, so the sap is all dried and they have no smell to them. I've just got to sand them down and get them set up, so th plastic shelves will be going! They haven't even nibbled them, though.
I've been making them toys with hemp twine and lots of wood chunks, apple wood, etc. But they pull them down and then carry the pieces everywhere, lol. So, I really need to order some better hardware to hang with, haha.
Captain Jack (white) is such a master at disapproving faces when I take his picture. And Rum just hides. They're so silly, but they're just as friendly as my rats! I wasn't quite expecting that, I thought they'd be more aloof. But they adore me, and when they hear the shredded wheat bag, they absolutely worship me. Lol.
I think the hammocks are more decorations for me, they don't seem to sleep in them, but I've made them a cube and sometimes they'll lay in it.
