my glider just recently started biting again, my friend told me it may be because during their teenage years they get grumpy or something and they start biting, i'm wondering if thats true or what? and if so how long with this phase last?

It is true in most gliders. Your glider probably has hit pueberty and will be a rambunctious brat for a few months. Its just like a teenager. Just let him know that you are the boss and that you won't put up with biting.

I think it is better to ignore the biting and when getting no reaction from you, the glider will stop.

if the glider is starting to become a brat and biting it is probly because of peuberty. i no it is hard to ignore the bites but you have to do it and it will think that biting int the answer!

I've found that saying "NO, NO, NO" in a loud voice, repeatedly until the biting stops, works wonders. They don't like the loud tone, and associate that with the bite.
And by the way, both of mine have gone through that stage too!

if it gets really bad (or in extreme circumstances) you can try blowing on them too...) i would start with saying no first though..cause they REALLY hate it when you blow on them (i save that for when they are really fresh)
