they were from a breeder and were supposed to be hand tame when I got them but they aren't, I have sat there with them and the one who does nip will take treat from me but thats it, I can pick the other one up but he is scared and once weed all over me bless him, I suppose it will just take time and perseverance on my behalf, just hope they come around as I love rats and love to be hands on with them
