Have you tried a little boiled eggwhite instead of the tofu? Tofu was his favourite food so he probably misses it.
Like Maz, i start to worry when they leave their fresh veg. The Robos don't always eat all but they like cucumber. I only give tiny amounts daily.
I don't worry about the seeds because they eat from their hoard as well and Robos only eat tiny amounts.

I buy the plain naked tofoo once a week fresh and give them all a small piece. It's around £2. I tried cooking and eating it myself but find it tasteless so give the rest to wildlife.

I have not tried egg because I worry about the smell. He often gets up late so I thought it would make the whole room smell bad. I think I will give it a go then. Thank you for replying and for the name of the tofu you buy. I agree he will be missing it. I will ask my partner to buy Orko some tomorrow. We both do not eat tofu so I was hoping it could be frozen.
I put out some bell pepper for him. I had a look in his cage and he has hidden seeds and mealworms in two of his hides. I think he was very upset when I had to find him. I put his hoard back but not exactly the way he did and perhaps he does not feel this is a safe place any more.
I was concerned as this is not his usual behaviour. Every other day I scatter feed a big spoon of seed mix and he collects it all to take to his hoard or eat.

Orko is so quiet so I had no idea he popped out at 6.30 yesterday evening and ate the pepper I put out. I only found out when I saw the camera footage. He liked egg but did not love it. He had a tiny bit but ate it in two parts. It seems he is only wanting to eat his seed mix if it is scattered on his logs. I always scatter some there anyway but he will only eat it from there now.
Here are two videos from last night.

The pepper seems to have tempted him out 
It's as if he has changed one of his habits since he was out of the cage. Or maybe since a bit of spot cleaning. They do things like that sometimes. Raffy didn't want to come out last night which was unusual - I am thinking it's the cold weather.

Orko looks very well to me and behaves like a busy and healthy Robo.
Personally, i don't think you have anything to worry about.

It is like he has changed his habits since the health check. It has been 18c here consistently as I have not allowed the heating to be turned off. HeheThe pepper seems to have tempted him out

Thank you elusive. It is wonderful to see Orkos confidence grow.He’s really enjoying that cornI know how hard it is being patient when they’re shy but I’m sure his confidence will grow.

Orko tried to dig his actual wheel last night. What a cute and funny thing to do.
I made him another present. This time I used hemp seeds. I hope he likes it.

My little munchkin came out for some water and pepper. I think my partner needs educating on portion sizes as I did not realise how much he had put out. Lol

How cute when he blinks!
Robos usually eat what they want and leave the rest.

He is so cute. Do all robos close their eyes when they drink?
