Lovely that she sat on your hand. They can still "ping" until fully tame (ie suddenly leap 2 feet in the air and wriggle off you) so best to do it low down and over something where she can have a soft landing. Bathtub taming is popular - so they can't escape or fall and hurt themselves (dry bathtub).

She loves the nibble wood! And I've seen her "ping" a couple times but mostly because she was startled by something (still don't know what). So far I've only stick my hand in the cage to tame her and there's enough substrate for her to have a soft landing. Unfortunately I don't have a bathtub but I'm thinking about getting a playpen of sorts.
