I also have a pretty destructive bun (free roam in my room & living room), so I’m interested to read some new ideas here. In case it helps, here are some things that have worked for us:

• getting her to forage for her pellets keeps her occupied for at least an hour in the morning. I hide them in her hay mat (life saver for me), in her toys, in…

That sounds like a wonderful start!

When something goes well, I like to repeat it a couple times before making any big changes. So you could do a couple more 30 min sessions, and then if those go well bump up to an hour, then may 2 hours, etc. If you are busy on certain days and can’t do a long session, that’s OK, a short session is better than…[Read more]

I don’t see any crust. It just looks flaky. It could be mites or it could just be dry skin. Is she molting at all?
