i handle mine every so often i dont tent to hold them alot as they are fragile & i don't think they enjoy being handled to much. Also the Risk of their Tail falling of is another reason i don't hold them. i only handle alot when i have to remove them from the cage or check them over. i usually just leave them alone.
