Breakthrough!

Jaeger went outside with Hans. I watched cautiously. So far he has not been to be trusted with this privilege. No matter where you set him, he makes his way for the nearest patch of dirt and consumes handfull upon handful as if it were a delicacy soon to be taken from him. And, indeed, I do. Dirt consumption results in captivity.

Today I let him crawl after Hans. He followed to the dirt with a wooden spoon. I watched and waited. He picked up a handful of dirt
- – – – – and he let it fall from his fingers!

He sifted dirt through his fingers, pushed the dump truck, stirred the dirt with his spoon and enjoyed himself without sampling his culinary skill!

Woohoo!
