Hi there,
I'm wondering if you guys and gals happen to have any tips or tricks to hand taming a fearful aggressive mouse. I have four others who are all lovely pets and love to be held and pet but one of the newest ones, Rocket, is terrified of me. I can't seem to find anything to get her to trust me and I'm running out of options so I'm hoping someone here might know something I don't.
I've tried hand feeding her and she bites me every time. I've tried gently introducing my hand to her inside her cage, same result. I was told to try holding her gently for small amounts of time, she still bites me. Gloves only increase her level of aggression and to make things worse I had to separate her because she attacks the other females in her cage relentlessly.
Any ideas on what I can do with her?
