I've heard of this happening to other rosy keepers too. Make sure you wash your hands before handling her if you've been handling rodents. You might also want to try handling her rodents with forceps if your feeding pre-killed so that she doesn't associate your scent with food. In the cases I've heard about, it seems to be more common in babies and many grow out of it.
