confused. Help!!!!? He's a little over a year old and I've had him for a little over a month now. He was doing great at first but now hes very aggressive. He eats great but now he does not like to be handled. Hes in a 20L Reptile tank and he has everything he needs. But the aggression is getting bad. Hes already bit me once, and he tries to bite me constantly. I'm afraid he will even hurt himself from thumping on the glass trying to bite me. I'm very confused. Help me please.
He gets fed in a separate container. Temps in tank are both good, and so is humidity. I wash my hands before I handle him, and use germ-x before and after i handle him. I do own a chihuahua who sleeps in the same room. Hes locked in his kennel every time i handle him. Hes eating about once a week. He last ate on tuesday and he was very fast to kill and eat the mouse. Its the correct size, and for feeding preferences he only eats white mice.
