since Poppy died (10 days ago) pesky Pepper has got harder and harder to get into his shed at night and last night wouldn't go in at all . i had to leave him out all night.
it used to be quite easy to get Poppy & Chester in or Poppy & Pepper together - i just put pellets in there at dusk & they would go straight in, but Pepper on his own just wants to stay out.
the shed door is locked in an open (ajar) position during the day so he can go in & out and i left it open last night for him but i don't think he's been in there at all overnight as the pellets i put down are still all there.
i think it's probably a combination of Poppy not being around to keep him in line, no competition for pellets now that Poppy isn't around & too much nice stuff to eat in the garden this time of year.
hopefully last night was a 1-off.
