Monty was not happy at the guy's house who has been keeping him for a few months now. He has become quite the angry worm. his lower jaw is smashed up from striking the glass in the enclosure he was being kept in. The work I did on tap training him seams to be all fail now. Anything that comes near him puts him in full attack mode. He is back in the enclosure I originally had him in. 4 ft 2 ft 2 ft. He curled up on the warm side last night and buried himself under his water dish. Tonight I am going to try to free his lower lip. I think it is stuck on a tooth and cant get it free. Should be interesting considering everything scares him now. The guy that had him says he has no clue why he has gotten so angry and thought would be better to bring him back to his original enclosure to see if he will calm down. I had to cover the glass to get him to stop striking at everything that went by it and put him in a dark room. Full quarantine has been implemented. He is about 10 months old now.
What are things that might effect his personality this way? I figure he is terrified of something? What else can I do to make him feel happy and safe? Vet visit in order? Approaching breeding season effecting him?
He was so calm before and easy to handle.
I got a very fuzzy photo of his face I will post. He was still curled up when I left for work this morning.
