Update!

Well this is recent. Just a couple of minutes agoI started giving them treats through the cage wires, so i decided topartially open the cage and see it they'd eat the treats out of myhand.Ella sniffed my hand and turned away, but Twix cameright up and started eating them. Ella sat in the corner the wholetime, completely ignoring me. Even after I finished I went to the cageand Twix came up begging for a treat, while Ella still ignored me.Atleast I'm making progress with Twix.

Keep it up, I am sure Ella will warm up eventually.

Ella's a little brat attack. Me and her keep facing off. I don't know what to do with her. :X

you can try figuring out her favorite treat, andyou would be the only one to give her that treat, and only from yourhand.

Her favorite treat is the leafy part of celery, but i've offered it too her and she turns her back.

Just be patient. You have to let her know that you are her friend =)

I know it is hard, but in the long run, it will be sooooo worth it.

I hope so, because I feel like I keep screwingthings up. I let them fun for an hour, but I needed to put them away,and i had to grab her, so i think she is more and more afraid of me.

Maybe you should try herding her back to the cagerather then grabbing her. Maybe with an object she can hate,like a broom or something? I am grabbing at straws hereatm... though dont hit or anything, just nudge =)

ill try one, but its a big empty room they're in, not many places to herd them
