Just wanted to share as I am so pleased...ive just been out to check on my boys again and refresh their hay and Dexter actually looked pleased to see me....I spoke to him and put my hand to him, he sniffed my hand and then let me stroke his head and looked like he quite enjoyed it! It’s massive progress and has taken eight weeks but we finally seem to be getting somewhere. Popcorn still isn’t impressed by me and runs for the nearest hiding place, perhaps he will always be this way, but hopefully if he sees that Dex is getting more comfortable, Pops will also learn that I’m not all that scary!
 
dexter is really comfortable with me now. He doesn’t run off when I go to them, he is quite happy to go about his piggy business while I potter around their cage. he has even let me pick him up, so lovely to get proper piggy cuddles! He has started chattering away when I take them their food.
Progress with Pops hasn’t been quite as much. He will still run off the moment he sees me coming but as long as I keep still he does come back out but I need to remain quite still for him to be comfortable. i don’t think he is ever going to be as confident as dexter but I will keep on slowly trying with him.
