Where's Niko's Log?

As you'll notice in the last post, Niko's log currently isn't in his cage, but it is on my coffee table for him to chill. He's been very odd with his mealworms lately - the other night he ate one but then just nudged at a second one while it made at least 3 laps around the log.

Niko: *nom nom nom*

Niko: "hmm, I wonder if there are more.."

Niko: "oh, hai food!"

Niko: "what you say, look other there?"

Niko: "wait, where'd the food go?"

Niko: "food?"
