Update on HiHo

Little HiHo is steadily becoming more impressed by the guidance and discipline of his older herd members. Gradually, his trust of them is deepening, and his ability to receive pressure and direction from the others is strengthening. He is, through all this, slowly fitting into the herd culture, gradually becoming less eccentric, more conformed to the life being lived around him by the others.

This evening all four camels grazed from the food trough together, with barely a grunt from any of them. Nice and quiet throughout the entire meal. Right near the end of the meal Muffin and Peaceful were the first to leave the trough to go over to where I'd put the the hay. As Peaceful Baba walked by HiHo's rump he turned his long neck back and, in passing, gave HiHo a sharp nip on his backside, indicating to the little camel that "school is still in". HiHo meowed plaintively while continuing to eat the grain remnants along with Jelly Baba.
