jumpy tic

[scottyy]

My retic has never really been jumpy but lately she has been very jumpy when i am putting her in her cage. today she pissed herself off by smacking herself in the face with her own tail. I hold her the normal amount that i always do. mondays tuesdays and wednesdays. She is also a little bit food aggressive and idk y because for the past 3 months i have fed her every friday at around the same time.

retics when they are young eat alot so you might need to up her food and its a retic most are food aggressive (they love there food) lol

well right now she can handle jumbo rats and it leaves a nice size lump in her stomach. i think she is just a pig lol. so it should go away as she gets older?

[Jenn_06]

She should be ok when she gets older,and it sounds like you can start feeding her small rabbits really soon.

my Super Tiger is starting to be a little pig too she stop eatting for 5 months but the last two week she has been eatting 2 times a week on small to med rats
