|  | Question About Handling
« Thread Started on Jul 16, 2005, 3:27pm » | |
Piglet is only 9 weeks old, but he HATES being picked up! He's okay once I'm holding him, but it's the initial picking up that he runs from. Does anybody know if this is something that he'll grow out of, or am I doing something wrong??

All new guinea pigs are like that. Don't worry, my piggies were skittish like that for the first month or two I had them as well. As long as you hold him consistently, he will grow out of it. (A fewcarrots might just do the trick too!  )
