I am just so happy with how my girls are getting on. I have had my girls 2 weeks and one day.

My older girl i got she is about 1 she is very skittish, she was never handled much. Last week she started eating from me on my lap, and now she comes out when it is dinner time and eats from my hand in the cage! I can't believe it.

One of my babies, Kiara, is the brave one. She came around very fast, she now snuggles on my lap and stretches out with her little legs and looks so relaxed. She even was stretching and yawning on me last night! And yesterday she even came out when i was spot cleaning to see what i was doing! First time for that :D

Ursula my other baby they are both sisters and were born on august 28th so nearly 9 weeks old now. She is my noisy girl! She is more scared than her sister but if i bring them both out together she snuggled up too and looked relaxed, she eats from my hands in the cage and out too.

I love watching the babies zoom around the cage, they have their mad moments when they go around everything, leap into a cozy and back out again. And popcorn around! This morning when i put in fresh food the two girls were wheeking, they sometimes do it when i rustle bags, they definitely know when i have food. They were coming to see me this morning until my boyfriend decided to repeatedly whack his pc tower as loud as he could to stop it vibrating :( they are still hiding now. Ursula popcorned so high the other day she landed on her bum! Think it surprised herself!

I can't believe how much they have gained trust in me so far! I guess sitting with them every day and getting them out every day really is the way to go. :rose
 
Its a great feeling.Mine will eat out of my hand when I am in the cage with them wothout grabbing and running and if I put the food beside me they just sit and eat it.next to me.Ehen they hear the fridge they are all on their hind legs,at the edge of the cage waiting for me
 
It is lovely. I feel like i have had them much longer than i have, i had to recalculate and look at the calender! They have come so far in a short space of time. Hopefully my girls will be very cosy and friendly in our future :)
