So it's the third day of being in the lovely larger cage that contains many levels and hammocks I have slaved away at and lookie there Odin and Bastian havn't set FOOT on the ladder to climb to the next level >_>
Bert doesn't use the ladders either, he just jumps up but sometimes I've seen him use the ladders to come back down. It's quite a impressive distance for a jump so it makes me giggle. Bert seems to like and enjoy the levels XD
But Odin and Bastian are on the bottom and STAYING there. I tried to put them on the next level and Odin let out some scared poops and just laid there like a brick for a long time. Eventually he came down and Bastian followed but I really didn't see HOW they came down. So my theory is my rats don't care for ladders, they shake and make them nervous. Should I add a smaller platform they can go onto to get on the higher platforms and just take out the ladders or what? If Odin and Bastian seem fine on the very bottom should I just not worry? They seem quite happy and content with the space there. I just feel bad with Bert possibly owning most the cage for himself while Odin and Bastian stay on the bottom cause they are scardy rats D:
