I've handled my rat pups since they were 7 days old and they should be used to me. Whenever I put my hand in the cage to give treats, change the litter box, or to pick the pups up they run to the corners of the cage.
Now that they are older I am spending one hour sessions with them (four at a time) twice per day.
Will this skittish behaviour go away or is this normal behaviour for rat pups of this age?
