Came home this evening to find Captain Jack hogging a whole peanut to himself!!
I could hear Peanut over in a corner scratching & digging around but couldn't see him
Left a meal of sardine, popcorn, pumpkin seeds, oats & a dab of honey for them tonight

They have so many vocalizations xD my man and my friend call me the crazy crab lady because I can identify four of the noises and what they mean. Im sure im not the only one who knows the difference between stressed sounds and happy/exploring sounds lol

Its mostly because I wake up in the middle of the night and end up sitting in a dead silent room. This happens more often than it should in a normal sleep pattern.
