I don't know if anyone else does, but we take our morphs out at least once a week and handle them. We want them to be friendly, sociable, and not get stressed by being handled. Our Pastels and Cinn love getting out of their tubs to cruise around. And we haven't had one refuse a meal because of handling yet. It just has to be a very slow, patient process to win their trust. Eventually I think they see being out as a chance to explore new scents and sights (I know, I am anthropomorphizing).
