At first he was skittish and scared but did get used to us and loves to be held especially by my granddaughter. For the past week or so he has become very skittish and scared for some reason. Nothing has changed, his cage is up off the floor already. We have not introduced any other type of danger to him. Very concerned, any thoughts?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11562722785271825766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013085805224098181.post-38862249811476073782013-02-09T07:28:58.272-05:002013-02-09T07:28:58.272-05:00Thanks for the tip, Snugglor!

I think then you don't loom over them as much. I used to have some in cages on the floor and they were really scaredy, but when I got stands for them they instantly got friendlier.
