You know...I have had suspicions that is was a dominance kinda thing. Kermit is really coming into his own here lately. He's getting real mature and he is showing a dominance kinda thing. Before, Piggy was the head honcho. They are gonna be fine...I was just so upset because Piggy is my baby and he really got her a good one. And of course I yelled at Kermit and gave him the cold shoulder. He's so funny...he knows he did something wrong and even tonight he is still acting kinda funny. He's still hiding, I had to bring him out to go potty tonight and got that "I'm sorry Mom" kinda treatment...lol!!

: I heard a herp collector say that when he tried to introduce his male to his female ig by putting them in the same cage, the male ran over and bit off one of the females toes. After that they were best of friends.
: He claimed it was a dominance thing...

: (Not really similar to your story, I know - just thought it was interesting!)

: Good luck to you and Miss Piggy, I hope she heals quickly!! And try not to be too hard on Kermit...I guess he was just doing what iggy's do...
