Hi Everyone!

One of my little darlings, Hamlet, is well, fat and lazy.  He weighs 3.5 lbs! :-(  

He gets 1/8 of a cup of Oxbow pellets for breakfast everyday.  He gets a carrot, maybe two/three times a week.  His other snacks include peppers, green/red leaf lettuce, blueberries and an occassional swig of parsley.  

He has access to a play area.  His cage is adjacent to it and the cage door is only closed when I'm at work twenty hours a week.  He just seems content to lay around.  I just don't know how to get him to exercise.  Even when he eats (pellets, hay, snacks), he lays down.  And since my Seussy is totally impressionable, he starting to lay down when he eats too.  Sigh!  Seussy is almost 4 years old (so hard to believe) and weighs 3lbs.  He is much more active than Hamlet and Hamlet is nearly 2 years old!  

I'm at a loss for ideas at this point so I thought I would come to you guys and ask for suggestions.
