    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

My woma is 18 mnths old and has not settled down at all. I still have to be so careful handling her. Not sure if she will still outgrow this or not?
I use a hook and she trys to eat that too. She will grab and wrap it and stay that way until I put the hook and her back in her cage.
Is there any hope at all that she will calm down with the food response in future so I can actually handle her?

A little back story. I got her last November and she was being fed live fuzzy mice by her former owner and was very thin, even for a woma, she a year old. I started her right away on weaned mice and , Ive recently bumped her up to xl mice and weaned rats..
She has made great progress but still I was hoping once she caught up she would settle down and its just not happening.
Any tips or tricks to get her more handleable?
 
She should eventually. One trick I learned with the hook and my male SD retic (who is so stupidly foody he will strike the RHP) is to rub it with a bit of lemon-scent hand sanitizer. The sharp lemon smell can throw them out of being foody once they encounter it.
