Subject: Pushing too hard....
Posted by Deanna on April 05, 2000 at 22:26:43 from 205.238.146.152

One of my gliders is just plain mean whereas the other one
is starting to recognise my smell and will stop crabbing
once she knows it's me. Neither one will stay in my hand
for any longer than a few seconds and the mean one will
lunge at me and bite me. I've had them 2 weeks now and
they were 4 weeks oop when I got them. I hand feed them (and
endure the bites) usually twice a day and carry them
in a pouch for usually hours a day. When I feed them by
hand I usually pet them too and ignore the crabbing and
biting. Am I pushing them too hard and just getting them
too upset and scared?
