    Hibernation/ Taming question

    alright yeah that makes sense, like some days i can pick him up but i dont go chasing him but i take him out to feed him live mice but i feed him fruit in the cage so he isnt hissing or anything like that anymore.

    Before hibernation he let me get close to him and pet him and now when ever i pull back the lid he runs to his hide. i got him back in fall and he was a couple months old then so i think he is about 7 months now and he has finally came out of hibernation. should i even bother trying to hold him...
