    Handling Question
    Hi,
    I've had my bp about 2 weeks now and recently started handling him. Every time I pick him up he curls into a ball and remains like that until I return him to his cage. I understand this is natural behaviour for them but should he be this scared every time? Is there an ideal way to pick them up and handle them to avoid stress? I've had a corn up until now and have noticed how different they are in behaviour when being handled. I'd like to be able to handle my BP properly rather than in just the palm of my hand so any help with my questions is much appreciated.
    Cheers!

    just like adam said. give him some time. lots of time. try only to handle him once a day and for only a few minutes.
