any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Is he going mad?! i've had my ball for about 6 months, he's an 08, great feeder, docile, good temps and hides etc never had a problem with him except for mites a couple of months ago. Treated him with hypoasis miles (Predator mites). Not seen any now for a few weeks so hopefully thats it. Anyway. A couple of weeks ago my ball tried to bite me only to miss and bite himself. Since then he has biten himself several times. When i pick him up he follows my hand intently but chooses not to 'have a go' instead he waits till i put him back down then spins round to bite me only to bite himself. He even bite himself twice, one after the other.
