Feet biting...

[Rhianna]

This may sound odd, but id be intrested to know if anyone elses gliders do it.

Widget has developed a thing for biting the other gliders feet, especially if one leaves the cage then comes back in. i noticed it the other night when i had them all out. when they went back in the cage, he was nipping everyones feet. Not just one glider, every single one, and the *attacked* glider will be shouting doing the "get off" noise... Then i put Giz away last, and he went mental for his feet! He is not drawing blood, seems more like nipping then vicious biting, but the other gliders dont like it much! lol

Loki has done it to Neela a couple of times too. 

Does anyone elses gliders do this?

Yep, Boo has started doing it a lot. Normally if she is eating and someone tries to share the same food bowl, but sometimes she will follow Stitch and nip his feet. He's also started hanging onto her tail tho, like literally picking it up and holding it as she moves. Strange animals ...

yes! Kyla (she's my dominant/bossy lady) does this to Suky, mainly when suky is eating

LOL! Mine do this too! grab each others tails, espeically when one is leaving the nest. Bisc or Widget will grab the escaping gliders tail with either their hands or their mouths and drag them back in! lol

Must be a dominance thing! they are so funny! =)

Haha yeah that sounds about right, when they are climbing out the pouch, ya can just see two arms holding onto their tails trying to pull them back in! Funny to watch
