Today i wanted to know if Percy still bites or not so i put my hand flat into his play pen with a pumpkin seed on my fingers.

Percy run towards my hand, bit my finger then took off with the seed - little devil.

He wasn't scared, threatened or angry so why does he bite i ask myself.

Maybe he hates hands but he takes mealworms from my fingers or maybe he is very territorial about his cage and play pen or maybe he bites because he likes to? I have absolutely no idea but would love to know how this little dwarf ticks.

When he is in his play pen and i hold my fingers above his nose ( just out of reach!) he will follow them around and i need to pluck up the courage to try and find out why he follows them....think i know the answer though.
