hey so this is my first post on here. I've had my gu for about 9 months. She is absolutely amazing. She was the runt of the litter and also was missing half her tail. I got her at 3 months old. Anyways she's always been super handlable. She went through a little phase around 9 months old where she got snippy and then she got over it. I had her in a smaller cage and just upgraded her to a 6x3x3 cage. I put her in and she became aggressive. He tip whips and charges at me. She does a lot of bluffing too. I mean this is only day 2 of her new cage and in sure it'll stop. Has anyone else had this happen.

I mean it makes sense I totally change everything on her and she has to be stressed out a little bit.

Thanks
SP

I guess that I'm really not surprised either. Still lots to be scared of in a new environment, especially if you're still very young.
