    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Ok I have an almost year old female BD.I have had her for almost a year, she is 250 grams and over the last 6 weeks has become quite aggressive? The only thing that has changed is that she has been up graded to larger housing. Other than that he care has been exactly the same.
For about the first 6 weeks after I got her she had to have the front of her enclosure covered, because she was too stressed to eat.
I am assuming that the change stressed her out and this is causing the aggression, If Anyone reaches in her enclosure(tank) she lunges mouth open, she has and will latch on. I have noticed that this is getting progressively worse.
I am wondering if anyone has any solutions or suggestions for curing or lessening this behaviour.

any help would be appreciated
thanks

Hello

Hello,

Sorry you are having problems with your girl.
Yes, moving them to a different enclosure can stress them out that is for sure. It should not last longer than a couple of weeks though, for the most part.
What type & brand of UVB light are you using, & how old are they?
Are the temps good? Since the tank is larger, is she warm enough perhaps? How are you measuring the temps?
Are you using supplementation? What type & brand, & how frequently are you giving it?
Have you ever taken her in to see the vet for a routine checkup?
