Will someone please tell Willow that when I put a whole toilet roll in, she's supposed to spend her time shredding it for beddding, not just kipping on the top! Lol.

Quick update: Sphene and Clint had a 2 second accidental meet at playtime, and she beat him up! Luckily no injuries, apart from pride, and nothing else went on and I was on hand to separate them very quickly. It was my fault, the partition wasn't fully in place. The Hooligans have settled better now and even Freya the Warrior Queen will take treats from me but does get in a bit of a temper if I wake her up. Nervous Nerys will even come to the bars for treats. They are getting so big now, they are easily the same size as Sphene and look like they'll be catching Clint up. I've put the larger wheel back in so they now have two wheels. I originally took it out as they were being flung from it when they were smaller. Quick question. Who wants to blow raspberries on that tummy?

Sphene went to see Judith, the new vet, this week. I took her because she's been losing a bit of weight, but she's been given a clean bill of health and she was very good while she was being examined, so we're monitoring her weight. She's behaving normally, just steadily dropping weight. But degus being degus, it went back up a little bit following the vet visit. Clint is still being his laid back self, nothing much phases him. I think I'm going to have to have a word with the hooligans about late night partying after I woke up to this the other morning, lol.

They've stuffed so much in the nest they can't get in there anymore, lol.
They've created a ski slopes with the remains of the cardboard box they've destroyed, and trapping your cage mate in the sand bath by dragging a piece of cardboard across it really isn't very funny, lol.

Clint is a lovely laid back gentle little guy, but he does like to frighten the life out of me by kipping at the bottom of his cage like this..... I have to keep checking he's OK.

I'd feel the same way, Savvy! I've wakened a deeply sleeping degu a few times because they too closely resembled the dead. LOL And of course, they were none too pleased.

Always look for breathing before pouncing, or you may just realise your fears by inducing a heart attack!

I do, but he always spots me when I stand up, lol. I don't touch him, just call his name and he'll look up as if to say 'yeah, yeah, what do you want this time.'
