Becoming used to everything..

[Cherpi]

Hey all! Just thought I'd post this. My degu Olly is doing really well so far, when I first got him and I opened the door he'd just ignore it and me and get on with his own business.. but then yesterday I started trying to get him used to me so I put my hand at the edge of the cage door and then he started to come over and sniff me, sometimes he'd totally ignores me like I wasn't even there but others he was eager to see what was going on. Anyway at last he started to walk all over my hands and trying to escape. But now whenever I open the door he's over IN A FLASH!

Just thought I'd post this, little but pointless but eh...

that's great:) have you got a safe area so if they get suddenly bold and come out of the cage you won't need to panic?

I made one out of card and stuff, but the funny thing is that my cage has a little slit about 2c big (it's bigger inside) and Olly runs inside it every time he gets out of the cage.
