Jack.308 40 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Sorry for all the questions, but i have to gills and the domant one is alot bigger and alot more powerfull( there both the same age and out of the same litter) the smaller one is lovely to handle can hold her all day and not a single nip or riggle. The bigger one is almost the opposite she seems to hate been picked up and only wants to do what she wants to asoon as shes picked up just wants to nip and riggle free, whats the reason for this am i doing somthing wrong or do people notmaly find this in a pair of gills from the same litter?

Im sure i slso read in plummers book Quote Link to post
AndyKelly 251 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 get some cat milk that is fine or bitter apple spray from a pet shop it tastes foul if you spray your hands with it. the other thing you could do is try handling on a full belly. kits will be more responsive on a full tummy Quote Link to post
