My little man is now 4 years old. He has come a long long way too. When I first brought him home he didn't want anything to do with us humans. We had to catch him to take him out of the cage. If we held on to him long enough he would calm down and relax but human contact was not his favorite thing. He hadn't been handled from the time he weened until I got him at 6 months old.
He no longer runs away as much. lol He still likes to play "catch me" no and again. I just love the guy to pieces.
He gave me a most awesome hatchday present. He has finally decided that the mash and sprouts are as wonderful as the other fids say they are. Last couple of days he won't even wait for me to put the dish in his cage in the morning before he is stepping up on it to get some! This is totaly cool but not the most awesome gift. lol He ate from my hand last night. Kelly made me eat Burger King and I always share my french fries. Benji ate one from my hand. Nothing like this has ever happened with him. He is one awesome dude!
