it depends how much your Jill trusts you with mine i handle them from a day old. some people say don't touch them for a week or two,

judge her reaction, if she is happy for you to be near her try stroking one if she is still happy then i would handle one for a few seconds then put it back leave her alone. if she tries to put herself in between you and the kits or try's to bite you leave her alone.

As above it all depends on the jill but i start as soon as they start coming out the nest box

I'm the same, when they start to walk about the cage, then I start to pick them up.
