Okay, thank you! I wasn't sure about handling, I was getting SO many numbers, so I just listened to the breeder. Bad idea, which does not surprise me. :/ he is doing a lot better since I let him alone. I didn't see your message until today, but I gathered after the second day that he was probably too new and nervous to be handled. I feed him for the first time tomorrow, I'm pretty psyched but also nervous. He's on live rat pups. Thanks again, huge help!
