not being able to see them and watch them makes this one more difficult.
so why would they be biting?
smell, what do your hands smell like? treats, strawberry perfume, almond soap?
my gliders get very excited over LIVE mealworms, unbonded gliders could get so
excited they bite the fingers going for the worms.
fear, sounds like they are not that fearful of you if they are coming to you.
hungry? they sound pretty hungry if they are reaching and grabbing thru
the cage bars. what are you feeding them, and HOW much are you feeding them.
when do they eat dinner and when the treats. how much do they weight?
I feed Ohpw, the wombaroo staple and fruits and veggies. are your gliders
eating all the food? maybe you should give them more dinner, I feed mine at 7 to 9pm at night, they get treats closer to midnight. food removed in morning.
Are your gliders underweight? adults females 120 to 140 grams about and
males 140 to 160 grams. I have one fattie at probably 200 grams and one at
about 165 grams for a female. the others are 160 or less.
try feeding them from a spoon for awhile, or I used the mealworm container or
container lid, then pet them while they eat.
if they stay in pouch during day while asleep make a FIST (harder to bite)
and put in the sleeping pouch with them, if they dont bite or stop biting leave
your fist in with them for 10 to 30 minutes. my wife used to sit on couch with
her hand in sleeping pouch for an hour or so during DAYTIME while they sleep while
she watch TV.
my gliders dont "bite" but some will HARD groom me, grooming some hair or skin then digging in hard! while sleeping/ staying with me during snack time, I put
my hand in with their group and one will start grooming my finger nail then
do a hard cleaning bite.
after a few years I still have one female that doesn't like humans, she runs away
as long as I dont have a treat, and will give me small nips if I put my finger in
front of her face. she just says "leave me alone please"
