Yes, go slow. Try putting your hand gently on the side of the cage, and feeding them some peanut butter on a chopstick. Every day make it so the peanut butter is closer and closer to your hand until you can feed them treats through the bars. If they are REALLY afraid of you, every day pull a chair next to the cage (about six feet away), and read or talk on the phone or eat. Then gradually move the chair closer and closer to the cage each day.
