Thank you! Bear ate some parsley from my hand, but just in the cage. So I am happy we stepped with the right foot. He kind of complains when he is picked up, but once he is in my arms, he relaxes. Soon I hope I will be able to photograph him alone, and maybe he will start trusting me. For now he follows Theodore and they make quite a pair exploring around. Although we miss Alvin, we are very happy Theodore found a buddy. He was introduced during a week to several males, and this is the one he liked, I said we'll let him choose, not us. As soon as we brought them home, and put them in the cage, Theodore started popcorning, something he hasn't done since Alvin passed away. The guys that pet sited him said that Bear popcorned too around Theodore, and he hasn't done that in a while. So it is a win-win situation, and I am hoping for the best.
