I think so - firstly we kept them outdoors but after about 6 weeks of them
being scared of our every move, we then did try them indoors but they
seemed
even more scared of us! So they went out after a week or so and were
clearly
happier. We'll keep at it though - they may become more trusting as time
marches on.

Very true - they love grass more than anything but vegetables in general
seem popular. We're building up a menu of favourites!
