Biting Glider - 05/18/16 10:32 PM
I've had my little Apollo for over a month now. He's about 5 months old now. He is pretty well bonded with me (so long as I don't interrupt his godly sleep in the pouches, then it's a total crabfest! lol)
Apollo seems to have a nasty biting habit.. he is constantly biting my fingers and occasionally my arm and neck (while we are playing).
I've done the tsking sound, and wash my hands, but he's still biting.
What are some other things I can do to get him to stop biting so much? I don't feed him with my fingers, except the occasional mealworm.
I'm at a loss of how to get him to stop.
Also, a bit off topic of my original post, he's lately had issues sleeping in his sleeping pouches. He seems to rather sleep in the hammock which isn't dark like the pouches. But he will sleep in the bonding pouch when I carry him around.. I took him to the vet and everything checked out fine, but still it's worrying that he's not sleeping in a pouch.
He's my only glider currently (I plan on getting him a cagemate soon).
Thanks for any and all help!
