Hey everybody I need some advice. My female Syrian has been very friendly and responsive to handling from the start, but I noticed she was becoming more bite-y and aggressive in her previous cage, which was too small at 400 sq inches. I upgraded her to a 800 square inch bin and gave her more toys, hides, some tree branches, and small willow branches to forage and shes still very aggressive and draws blood when she bites. I've been trying to tame her from square one again by letting her smell my (washed) hands and giving her treats from my palm, but shes out for blood every time. If anyone knows what's going on I'd greatly appreciate some advice!
