I love the fiesty ones who zero in on fingers and then determine to kill them. In each of my Ghost litters, I had a finger killer It was hard to resist offering a finger too often, because it's just so derned funny watching the attack In '03, I had one little girl that would chase fingers!! She was very fearsome! My little finger killers stopped after a couple of days and became as docile as the rest.

You will enjoy picking out your favorites and watching them watch you, and start noticing the world around them. What's really cool is later on, when the ones you handle a lot, stop cringing when you reach to stroke them or pick them up. To me, the ultimate is in the evening, when I open the door to one of my '03 Ghost holdback girls, and if I stand very still and have patience, they will crawl right out onto my arms and shoulders. I have handled, loved, and smooched these girls more than any of the others. I love how they seem so unafraid.

Enjoy those little wiggly worms!!! I'm so glad you had a nice healthy litter. That's all we can ask for!
