Hi all!
 
I have a small problem with one of our babies.  Elmo is 6-7 months old and
up until recently he's been a major Momma's boy.  Because of our crazy
schedules at work the kids haven't had as much free time as they usually
do...4-5 hours a day has decreased to 2-3 hours.  Lately though Elmo has
become a little trouble maker.  He has become a little nippy, usually when
you pick him up off of the top of the chair he's about to leap off or the
top of the computer desk he's figured out how to get on top of, that type
of thing.  Although the decreased play time is temporary, I am a little
concerned and I am wondering if I should be a worried as I am.
 
-He is a little mopey..not a lot though
-Activity is normal both in cage and out
-Poops are fine
-Appetite is fine..though he tends to through food out of the dish when he
 thinks he's being neglected for attention
 
I'm thinking it's a "Mom I'm mad at you for not letting me out all day"
thing, but I'm wondering if this may sound like something else to a more
experienced person.
 
The other Three are just fine!  By the end of July they will have free run
of one room..the house isn't ready for them yet!
 
Please let me know what you think!
 
Thank You!
Katie
