hi, my husband bought me an IRN yesterday, we have read up for weeks about them but we don't know everything about hands on training.
Jasper is a blue IRN hes hasn't been hand reared and was bought from a reputable petshop who uses reputable breeders.
We have had him/her for 24 hours and hes settling in lovely but anytime I go over to the cage to do anything like change water or give him a treat he panics.
My question is, should I start handling him straight away or should I work really slowly with him?
When should I let him out of the cage, before he lets me handle him or after he is comfortable with me handling him?
I am sure I will have many more questions to come but first things first lol :blue:
