Ok guys, I got my new baby today. They say to let him acclimate to his environment but he is eating really well and does NOT want to leave my hand. For instance. When I walk by, he goes to the cage and where I am and tries to climb. Once he is on my hand (for 5 mins) I try to softly pick him up, (time to go back to your cage now.....) he completely lays down on my hand so I cant get a gentle grip on him. Then he digs his head into the crease of my thumb, as if to say "NO! I don't wanna go to bed!"
Is this rare or am I losing it??

The funny thing is that I JUST got him yesterday and he is SOOOO much the cuddler. I am calling him a HE for now... have no idea the sex. I named him Diego. I hope I dont have to change the name to something feminine. LOL
