cute. arnt they born with spikes?

Just take your time and scoop them up very gently. The way to *really* get spiked is to try to pick them up from above, with just one hand. If they twitch and your hand is on their back, and they're on a solid surface, you're a pincushion.

Keep it up - with regular contact, they'll calm down and be lots less likely to twitch when you're vulnerable (so I've read).

When I can, I will hunt up all of my info for you!

My memory isn't as good as it used to be


From what I can tell in your pic, you have her in a metal, barred cage, right?


She should have a little house/hideaway for privacy & comfort



I'll start looking for my records for you, & whatever I find, I'll post her for you!

Cool yeah she has a little cave/house thing a big wheel to run on I also have two old shirts I wear at night and have been switching them out with her so she can get used to my scent. Good/Bad?
