Thank you everyone for their advice and suggestions. I have decided to name the little guy "Norman." After reading all the posts on this thread and reading everything I could find on the internet I decided to buy him a mini mesh cage. Keeping him in a tub made me nervous...and since I moved him he seems much more active. Here are a few pics I took when I was moving him from old cage to new. Enjoy! This is the new cage.
This is how big he is! Bigger then he was a week ago, he had his first shed.
