Curious nibbles, but I am jumpy
Hey guys! Charlie is doing really well! Every night he comes out when I feed him, and he willingly without hesitation takes a sunflower seed from between my fingers. I have always hoped that I could get him to crawl onto my hand, and I know he would. Although, whenever I put my hand flat in the cage, he comes up and nibbles on my fingers, out of curiosity of course. But, being the jumpy person that I am, I always jerk away when he bites me. I know that hamsters can sense fear, but honestly, I am so afraid of hamster biting after my last hamster took a chunk out of my finger. Any advice? Are wearing mittens a good idea? I tried that, but Charlie pulls on the fabric.
Thanks for reading!
