Hi All - I put up a thread last week as we lost our beloved Hermanns, Phyllis. Well after 2 very long days we found her, covered in earth and looking a bit bemused.
We checked her part of the garden to ensure that it was once again secure, and put her and her brother, Colin, back into that part. However, we have not seen her for 4 days now. Colin went 'missing' for 2 days and my OH found him burrowed right down about 1 1/2 feet.
I am convinced that she hasn't escaped again, but that she has burrowed right down. She is only 2 years old and is about 1/4 the size of Colin, so my question is how deep down can they burrow and how long can they stay there for? We are both really worried that one this occasion she really has gone!
