Where did you get him? It depends on his temperatment not his size. If you try and chase hyim down to handle him, he will run when he sees you...and this will happen longer then if you left him alone for a while. There are some asians that you could handle right away (even some aussies) depending on how they were raised before you got them.
Just keep feeding him and you'll see one day when you open the cage and he sees your hand, he won't run. At this time slowly take your hand and attempt to pet him while in the cage. When you do this the first few times he will most likely run anyway...let him...so he sees it's a choice of his and that you mean no harm.
It's a slow process. Did you say you had two or one?

:Hey
:My aussie is about 2 inches head to vent. Is he young enough to start handling everyday. Or should I leave him alone? What do you think? Thanks....
