Yes. In the mornings I hold him for a bit in my hands while he warms up. He is enjoying that and the head pets. He is making progress. Not fighting me anymore when I hold him. But he still runs when he sees my hand. From what I read most babies are flighty. So he will grow out of it in time. He's shedding his skin from his tail right now. He's gotten a bit bigger since I bought him. I saw his siblings at the store the other day. He was the second smallest, but now he's bigger then them

Just be patient, sounds like he is coming around. Sometimes shedding makes them real cranky and jumpy. My new girl is going through a serious shed right now and she does not want to be touched at all! She wants to eat but the minute I try to touch a spot where there is shed she flinches.

Glad to hear he's growing good :)

Love mornings with him. Only time he just relaxes and enjoyed being held.

Finally got the sides and back covered. Ran out just a bit at the bottom that still needs covered, but hopefully this is the last issue he has and hopefully he can learn to relax.

Looking really good... As babies they tend to be more skittish just keep going slow and hold him when he's sleepy and I'm sure in time it will be all good.
