Default She's Still A Biter .....

I've had Dandi for a month now and overall she has done quite well! She let's me watch her in her cage without freezing or running away, She happily takes treats from me and allows me to stroke her. But the one thing that hasn't improved is her biting.

I've recently been doing the bath tub sessions with her, it took her a while but eventually she came up to me but she made several attempts to bite my foots and leg (which luckily I intercepted before she could really get her teeth in by just moving my hand towards her). I don't think they were out of aggression or fear but I could be wrong.

Does anyone else have experience of a bitey hamster, and did they stop if at all?

I don't mind taking my time with Dandi .... or accepting that maybe she will never be the cuddly hamster I was hoping for. I just wanted to know if I should think "She'll stop eventually" or "I'll just have to watch my fingers" from now on!
