New gopher

[Syco]

We just bought an Albino Sonoran Gopher a couple of days ago, she is really beautiful. I would show a picture of her but I can't get close to her without her striking! LOL! This girl was so calm in the store where we bought her(no she wasn't cold) They actually take wonderful care of the reptiles at this store. The lady that runs the reptile dept knows us and told us about her and said she had been kinda nippy but she had been keeping her in the back and working with her and was waiting for the right person to sell her to (we must have "sucker" tatooed on our foreheads!). She was really calm at the pet store and the day we got her home we both held her and had no problems. Yesterday we tried to hold her and she was nothing but pure evil! She bites repeatedly and strikes at any movement outside her cage. She's just a baby now but I'm worried about when she gets bigger! Anyone had any experience with Gophers? Have any ideas? Should we just leave her alone for a while or should we keep getting her out?
