I have a 6mo old glider and just got a baby cage mate for him. I just asked some questions a few days ago but I think the baby is 8 weeks. Anyways my older glider keeps getting on the babies back and biting him and won't let go. It's not a quick bite and release he is hanging on and will travel with the baby just hanging on to him. The baby doesn't crab or fight back but the older glider is so heavy it's hard to watch the baby struggle to move. Idk if this is dominate behavior and we should just let him do it or what. They are in separate cages right next to each other and they bark at each other all night and the older one hiss-barks sometimes when he can't see him. But literally every time we put them together he goes straight to his neck and bites and holds. They don't play or anything just that. Thanks for the advice
