I try to handle Lan Fan at least once a week; she's not particularly easy to get out of her tub, especially with how long she's getting, and she has always been resistant of getting out at first. She calms down afterwards, but the entire removal process is pretty stressful. I'm trying to encourage her to investigate my hand and the open tub when I do cage maintenance as I did with Mazikeen, but it's slow-going with how skittish she is. She is quickly approaching 3 feet, which is insane considering she's only a tiny 54 grams. So much noodly child.
Here's a video of a recent handling session -- probably the best one thus far -- where she's trying very hard to reach my elbow lmao: https://i.imgur.com/CmSt4rB.mp4 .
