Mine loved listening to the food-wheeks too

I don't know if Bo likes being held or if he's telling me to put him back... The teeth chatter they do when they are angry, is it really loud? He makes a chattering noise he never makes except for when he's being held and I can't quite interpret it. And if he's mad with me can I still hold him some to get him more used to me?

 

[Hoggle*&*Ludo]

I might try this tonight, want to see if they respond to it! ^)

With his chattering Bo tells you to keep your distance; heobviously doesn't like being held. Perhaps you can work you way around it with encouragement and little treats?

Yeah, he gets cucumber when I hold him, but he eats really fast! And when it's all finished he starts chattering again (but it's not loud). Do I always have to feed him or will he learn to like being cuddled without the cucumber?

 

[Wiebke]

You can give him the slowly cucumber in tiny bits, while he is sitting on your lap. Touch him only "by accident", but talk to him a lot. With patience, you can get him to let you touch you and cuddle you.

It took me months with my Minx, but when I broke the barrier, it didn't matter if I gave her a pet in the middle of her running free in the garden!

If something doesn't work, go back a step and give it a fresh start - persistence is the key!
