Thanks for the replies! We did try feeding her in a separate place at first, but the viv guy said that wasn't necessary - last night we tried in her vivarium, but that didn't make a difference. I got her last Friday, so maybe it was just too soon? Guess we'll leave her alone until next week, and hopefully she will be hungry enough to take it then.

As for the handling, we kept our hands off for the first 4 days... but then she invited herself onto my roommate's arm when she was checking the temps, and now does the same to me quite often. So while I am trying to limit her handling to a few minutes a day, she definitely doesn't seem to mind! I would even go so far as to say she likes being held, but I've already been informed that they merely tolerate it. We'll be patient, though, and keep away until she eats if you think that will help. Thanks again!
