So, finally have some time to relax, and the girls have been in a lovely place of sitting next to me for the past few days.
Main consern is that Samus (I think) is starting to go bald on her nose... i think it is from playing with the handle's on the cage (there is a pair at the bottom of the cage near the base and they/she hits it back and forth between the bars...thus rubbign her nose against the bar above it.
Other than that... they got two new hammocks this weekend, and have a new sleeping area.. though they poo up in the hammocks and sleep in their poo...is this normal?
Should be moving them into the larger cage by christmas (yay four day weekend), and hoping that will stop Zelda from being a territorial... witch... cause she has been body checking Peach when she went to get food yesterday... I moved one of the two food bowls to a lower shelf (don't like doign this cause they end up pooing in it.) So, hoping once I get them into a larger cage Zelda will cool off a bit.
Samus and Peach are pretty close. Zelda is off sitting by herself some times in a corner while the other two are cuddling sometimes... don't really know what is up with that... I know Peach is the lowest ranking goo, don't really know who is top... Samus seems to be on the bottom with many sleeping piles though.
Not a cute note:
Peach tried to steal my fleece blanket last night... didn't realize it was close to the cage and she pulled in a corner and when i pulled it out she had plenty of words for me.
Then this morning I was bugging them on the hammocks (Zelda left when the cage door opened) and every time I went to touch Samus, Peach would squeek at me.... it got to a point she put her teeth on me and softly tried to pull my finger away from her sister... (Samus was still sleepy so she was just kind of putting up with it... they don't care for pets yet)
and all of Peach's noises are king of the loud warning call type squeeks
