I have one. Their diet is pretty specific. They need protein, which you can give several ways. I like chicken baby food. I give that, everyday. They also need fruit, I use fresh and baby food fruits. They cannot have any type of citrus fruits, they will go into shock. You need to be careful with the baby food. Get the kind that only has the ingredient and water. Like, applesauce and water listed in the ingredients. additives and preservatives are not good. I mix the fruit with yogurt every other day, for calcium. They also can get good protein from eggs, you need to hardboil and crumble them.
Now, about their temperaments. They are quite shy and take a good bit of time to get used to someone. They usually choose one person with whom they bond. If you aren't going to bond with them, make sure one of your sisters is. If not, they will essentially be wild animals in a cage. They make a very loud chatter when they are frightened or angry that causes most people to be afraid of them. They will bite, but it's not a bad bite, just a hard pinch. It takes awhile for them to trust a person, so it is a gradual thing. It's not like you can bring it home and reach in and grab it and hold it. Also, if it is out of the cage, they are very fast and will climb up as high as they can get. Can't think of anything else right now, just that they are pretty specific with regard to diet and handling, and maybe your sister would be better off with a hamster. Good Luck.
