I always read posts about affectionate leos who perch on shoulders and stuff, well, none of my 7 really like sitting still. They all like to jump and run, and handling them is hard. I've had 4 since they were babies, and have always handled them ,yet everyone is still jumpy. Also loud noices, even voices startle them... Whats wrong?

What gallon of tank do you have. Mabye they just need more space to get some exercise. Also are you handling them during the day because they probably just want to go back to sleep and get away from the light.

No they definately like me. I baby them alot. But i have two girls in a 50 long, a male and other female are being sepertated together in a 20, and i have a newbie by herself who doesnt like to eat, and 2 babies, which is understandable. But the other 4 are jumpy. Its weird.

WEll my adults are all about 2 year old, yet are jumpy. I guess they like to be freed from the cage moreso then handled.
