While this may look like he's about to attack, it's actually Sid yawning. I though it was funny that I caught it straight on. Right now, it's 11pm and he's still up because April just got home and he loooooveess April.
Sid has been a good little guy today. He ate his food, tore up some toilet paper rolls, punched holes in some index cards, and explored walking on a piece of paper that I put on top of his cage. It's so funny watching him do things he's obviously never done before. Last night he even climbed down to he bottom of his cage to pull a few almonds out of a coffee filter foraging toy I made him. It was like he was walking in slow motion, waiting for disaster to strike at every step. But alas, all was well and safe and he repeated the process several times to get more almonds. We pretended not to watch, of course, because then he'd certainly stop. So this week he's gone in his new
cage voluntarily, explored the entire cage, inside and out, succeded in getting almonds out of a foraging toy, climbed his java tree perch on the top of his cage, mastered retireve, rung a bell, tore up a toilet paper, tore up index cards, and took a shower on his shower perch. What an adventureous little guy for a Senegal who was described as phobic, aggressive, and not tame.
He's adjusting well and we're really proud of him.
