Well as i've told everyone before, we started out with our 2 boys then we got a girl (cocoa) and then we got her a friend (miley). Miley was a bit more skiddish than cocoa but she'd tolerate people holding her and seemed very curious (she was about 4/5 weeks old). However now she is 3 1/2 months old and she's gotten worse. All she does is hide but when your hand's in the cage she seems curious and will follow your hand around. But once you pick her up she panics. She'll act calm for a bit and then try and bolt away as fast as she can and when you grab her she squeeks like she's scared. I tried holding her for a long time to calm her down but it didn't work all she wanted to do was get away. What should I do to show her that she doesn't need to be afraid of people. She's the only rat I own that doesn't like to be held.
see how calm she used to be?
