Gorgeous little girl! I like the nippy ones, they are great feeders. If you have the courage to handle her without gloves, it will help her get used to your scent and learn to recognize it as non-threatening. If you need the gloves, let her get some scent directly from the skin on your arm when she is in a calm state. Keep the handling to a minimum. All mine eventually calm down just from day to day cleaning and water changes. The ones who were nippy as hatchlings usually are the ones that come flying at food on feeding day. I have one that never even lets a rat touch the floor of her bin.
