By my handling them to put them in the feeding containers- it has helped them get used to my scent and being handled some what and they are calmer now then they used to be.



That is one reason why I feed in separate containers. Not a lot of handling to stress them just get them used to my prescence, scent and realizing I'm not going to hurt them. Slowly builds confidence between keeper and kept.
