Subject: Glider Bites

Hello. This is my first time on this and/or practically any posting site. Anyway... my wife and I have a 1 1/2 year old male (named Rocky) that has started to bite hard and repetitively. My wife used to hold him in her lap wrapped in a towel for hours every evening. After several months (sexual maturity?), he all of the sudden started attacking her hands and arms unprovoked. He has subsequently done the same with me when he has been free in his room. (He is sometimes allowed out of his large cage to run around his room.What can we do? I have heard that nuetering is a possible solution. We are hesitant to do this because if it doesn't work,we may have to try and find a good home for him. He is very well taken care of and was paid attention to nightly until these attacks. At this point, my wife is afraid of him as we have never been able to get him to stop. Sorry so long... Any input will be appreciated. Thank you.
