My Squishy is doing pretty well he is a little guy -- he eats everything I give him, today he had his first leaf veggies as he already is into all the whole veggies peas, corn and etc. He eats out of my hand and I only got nipped once because I was holding the corn incorrectly but he is really careful and easily hand fed. It was funny the other day I have a hard time picking him up sometimes and he looked at my hand and climbed up himself as if to say see do it like this. Totally love this little fellow.
