This is the one I get in my garden. He's only a young one. He hasn't seemed that interested in any dog food I put out, but I'm still putting a little out in case he just missed it (although I put it where he has dug a few times for slugs).
Strange that he doesn't touch the food, as you know, the one we have here, waits for it to be put out..gif "Smile")
Maybe he IS but only for the slugs that it attracts (which it does!)
Of course he may be a teenager, so sleeping at the other end of the day to the adults
UPDATE - I was worried that when I moved the nest the other day I had disturbed him too much so I carefully peeked yesterday only to spot 2 little bodies.. and the small amount of food I left out did disappear (although whether it was them or cats I can't tell).
I have now managed to get them to eat catfood three times today - so I think that I can safely say that a) they will eat it and b) they know where it is. So I can get some dog food (better for them) tomorrow, safe in the knowledge that I WON'T have to chuck the can away... again!
Then you catch them, roll them in clay and bake them at the bottom of a wood fire - oops, sorry that was for my other relatives to see.
Don't worry Louise, as long as it's in code, you can put some pastry on it and bake it, nobody will know.
LOL, Eddy - some people keep pigs at the end of the garden, I just keep 'Hedge-Pigs'
