Hey all! I got my 2 boys about 2 months ago from a lady who didnt have enough time to take care of them, she said they were about 6 months old. Since I got them, I visit them everyday, sometimes a few times, my aunt and I share them, 1 is mine and 1 is hers, when they got used to me petting them in the cage I started picking them up about a month ago, and tried to pick them each up once a day to get them used to it, and they still dont like it and try to bite me, I talk to them all the time especially when I pick them up, a few days ago I started sitting on my aunts bed and putting them on my lap 1 at a time and petting and talking to them, and they just stay still like they are scared and then after a few minutes they try to bite me so I put them back. They are so adorable and cute and I just want to love them and pet them and hold them, and I dont think they are getting used to me or appreciating me trying to handle them. How do I get them to stop biting me and like being held?
