Well, they are still here doing the same ole stuff. I look at the 'J' feeder every day to be sure it has kibble in it. It had a little in it yesterday so I let them clean it out before I take it out to wash and then refill it. This morning it was totally empty, not even the fumes left in it so I cleaned it, returned it to the cage and filled it. Pester-Doodle instantly came by to chow down. Guess she was hungry. Peekaboo went for the door on level 5 where she begs for some TLC which she got and then went to the feeder to shove kibble into her head. Peekaboo is like a new born baby bird in how she eats. Many times her own weight every day. Her weight has more than doubled since I got her. She does well as blind and deaf as she is but she has some way of knowing when I come to the room. She will go to that door every time and pace back and forth waiting for me to play with her a bit. Pester does about the same. They have become very friendly and simply love any attention I will give them. Spring is on the door step down here so I have begun new training for them. I will train them to not shed. Is like my dog, I had trained him to not eat. Could wave a steak or even a cat in front of him but he would refuse it. Took a bit but finally got him trained, then he died. Maybe I will have better luck with the ferrets in the shedding routine. Gordon, Peekaboo (Tankerbell) and Pester Rev.
