I've been feeding my girl right in her cage for a few months now. And she's never showed anything like agression. I've had friends come over and they'll go right in and pick her up and she's fine.
Well last night she was roaming her tank looking for some food. I had lost power and was worried about her so I went to reach in and pick her up to hold her and keep her warm. Well as I went to go and grab her, she snapped at me. She's never done this before. I always go in to clean her tank out and change her water. This really is the very first time she snapped. It freaked me out a little but the snap didn't even seem to of been opened mouth (at least not that I could see). And it was slow enough that I had plenty of time to pull away.
Could this be a sign of her developing cage agression? Or could it just be possible because she's so hungry she might of mistaken my had as a mouse or rat? (I know that sounds silly).
If anyone has any idea and how to get her out of the cage agression (if it possible is) I would appreciate it.
