Sorry to hear that. Does it hurt too much? It sounds like it does. I guess I'll get my share of bites soon. At least I hope so, in a way it'll mean my ig is getting better. Right? Hope you heal soon! Lisette

: I cant belive it he bite me. I went to get him out of his cage and he was a bit Reluctant to say the least about getting out, well I made sure I wasnt going to let him make the decision, as I have been adviced. Well after about a minute out of his cage he just lunged out and bite me. He nailed me good, drew blood and I have marks on both sides of my finger. Of course I Yelled, but didnt put him down. I made him set in my lap for a good 5 mins till after he calmed down then I gave him a bath (with a towel wrapped around my finger as it was still bleeding.The only diffrence in his day was he was fed later than usual. Any ideas why this happen??? After all this we put him on leash and he climbed the baby bed spring frame that has been setting taken apart in my bedroom for a couple of years (no room to store it so its in a corner out of the way) he LOVED climbing it got to the top strected out as if to say "Now this is the life". Can or Do I need to do anything to prevent further bites, I dont want this as an all the time occurance. He has NEVER showed any signs of agressions to me before this and after it he was settign in my lap? Was he just having a bad day ?
