I've been introducing snacks to Pixie little by little over the last couple of weeks. I started with mealworms which she gobbled right up, and have given her little pieces of hamburger which she seems to love too.

Last night was the first fruit.

I was eating some raspberrys and decided to try one out on Pix. I broke off a couple of "beads" ( I don't know what you'd call them, you know, the little balls that make up a raspberry) and put it next to her.

She sniffed and huffed at it a little, then licked it. She never ate it, just squished the juice out of it and proceeded to smear it all over her face and back.

That was my first annointing experience and goodness what little contortionists they are! I wish I had taken a picture of my little pink Pixie. :o

Isn't it amazing the positions they can get into? And how long those tongues are! The mental picture makes me smile.

haha I'm going to try that! I've only had Harley for 3 days now so no annointing yet!

My only annointing experience was when I held the little girl hedgie I just adopted (she is only 3 weeks) and she just went to town. Her sister did too.

Hehe I love it when they annoint, it's so funny to see the positions they can get themselves into. :laugh:

When I held Isis for the first time at the store she chewed on my necklace and annointed in my hands and it was so cute since she was so little (6 weeks).
