The trust is Growing

I just recently got my little gu chomper a few days ago ,Thank You again Rose ! The first day he slept all day , The second I was able to pick him up I put him in a food bin with ground turkey and stawberries he ate nothing and wanyed out . I lightly scrambbled a egg and fed him alittle in his cage he was so messy I stopped worried about compaction . Today is a great day, I picked him up and put him in the tub to fed him. I gave him ,pinkies,calicum dusted crickets and he grubbed, still didnt touch the ground turkey or worms . After that gave him a warm soak . He wet back in his cage basked and burrowed for the night .Just wanted to share. lol

They are not mean it is just them eing afraid and defensive you look like a huge predator to them . Tonka very tame but he is always on the go he will let me get some squeezesin but that is it.

haha. i know i know, he is very afraid, he's a rescue. i've had him for about two months and everytime i stick my hand in his cage he goes after it!! the other day i reached in there to change his water, he bit me, and being surprised i pulled back letting him loose. it took me like twenty minutes to catch him and it was outside, im surprised he didnt get away never to be seen again!
