BP biting at everything
I've had my BP for about a year now, and he's around 3 years old. When I got him (November 2014) he ate twice, stopped for a couple months, and just recently started eating again. I fed him a bunch to make up for the 3-5 months he didn't eat over the winter. The issue now is that he seems extra irritable, or just that he's super hungry (even though he's eaten a lot) and possibly thinks everything is food. I've seen him strike at his water bowl once when I blew into the tank (to dislodge a piece of substrate on the side of the waterbowl, so it wouldn't get in), and has bitten the bed before when I took him out to let him move around a bit. I'm much, much too afraid to pick him up now, as I'm afraid he'll mistake me as food and bite me. He's never had this issue before, and tolerated being held and handled just fine even while he was off feed. Now he just seems pissy. Is there any way to remedy this?
