Hey guys and gals,
I know you read these posts all the time..
I''ve got a small blotch P and i've had him for about a month
he's about 7-8 months hes in a 2Ft Cube with three hides and fake grass around the edging
When i first got him he was great to handle but now he's loco
Ive had him in a holding tank inside his enclosure and he's just as agressive
Ive got a make shift hook that i use to take him out and hes so skittish and constantly tagging me
Any suggestions I'm more or less stumped |

|  | Mr Knee Subscriber | Join Date: Apr-06 Location: Wollongong Age/Gender: 36 | | | | some will get snappy if they are stressed out , may be coming into shed , may be hungry , may be just stressed out ,
how often are you handling it ?
i would say leave it be for a while and let it settle in a bit more .
as far as i recall you have only had him a few weeks , i normally dont even look at mine for a week or so when i first get them , i have two from Gonzo myself and they are both fine now , the female did tag me a few times but she is settield in and feeding well , so no more bites . | |
