How often do you get your Rodents out?

What animal was Hazel?

Hazel was a syrian hamster who recently passed away(The exotics vet at my clinic told me she had an enlarged kidney, indicating either diabetes or a kidney infection). I don't know how old she was but I had her for close to two years and she was already an adult when I got her. I tried to get her accustomed to handling, and while she never once bit me she made it very clear that it stressed her out. so I gave her lots of toys to keep life interesting and let her enjoy herself.

Before Nathan was born Wyatt would get time out just about everyday, there'd be the occasional day that he'd not get time out though. Since Nathan's been born he's been getting less time out. Things are starting to get back to normal now that we're settling into a better routine though.

The chinchillas are getting less time out too. They don't seem to really care though. Of the 3 Lola likes to come out the most. Annie sometimes likes to come out and sometimes would rather stay in their cage. Daphne prefers to stay in the cage and doesn't come out as often as the others.

I don't let the rodents out when Nathan is in the room with me, but when Justin watches Nathan I can let them out of their cages. The birds are much easier and I can let them out of their cages when Nathan is with me.
