I had the same problem with my baby. He was good all day, and always with me, but at night he would crab at me. I talked to Bourbon about this one. When your glider is wide awake they ahve to completly trust you then. I took her advice and it tottaly worked. I no longer have that problem. She told me that at night put the glider in the cage and put your hand in there. The glider MUST get used to your hand when they are complettly awake. You can put treats in or on your hand at first. When you hold you hand in there and the glider doesnt bite, crab, or lunge..then this is a good sign. My glider ecentually would climb onto my hand. I then would let him play out of the cage..following him everywhere with my hand. He now gets on my hand all the time while playing. She has to get used tot hat hand while awake, not just durring the day when sleepy. Gliders are much more active at night. Good luck!
