Posted - 02/08/2009 : 21:03:26 All I know is that my Royal has been handled everyday except after feeding when i miss a day so she goes 48 hours before I next get her out and she is feeding really well, but they all have different characters and temperaments so you have to play it as it goes until you know their behaviour :) good luck and I'm sure she will settle if she is kept peaceful and calm |

I dont think it is a good idea to handle every day, i think this will stress her out more, 2 or 3 times a week is probably enough to start with.
I agree, or you may get the not-eating problem which is a lot worse! |

Posted - 01/08/2009 : 22:45:48 Do you know if she was handled a lot before you got her, could be that she just needs to get used to that if she hasn't, a little a day gradually increasing the time and hopefully she will be fine :) |
