Hi everyone!
My GCC is about 1 and a half years old, and as of 3 or 4 weeks ago he started getting... frisky.
Having researched GCC mating behaviors, it has come to my attention that he is absolutely decided that my brother is his mate. Which is A: sorta gross and B: super inconvenient because he has gotten VERY territorial and aggressive. The only person he will let take him out of his cage is my brother, and everyone else that he was usually okay with he bites hard enough to draw blood. I'm not a huge fan of this, as you've all probably guessed.
His diet hasn't changed at all since this happened. Still assorted fruits and veggies in the morning, tropican pellets for the rest of the day. His cage doesn't have any huts or hidey holes. Whenever he bites/tries to bite I always just put him down and walk away. He's just decided he is very angry all the time. Is there any way I can keep him from being bitey? It's really starting to frustrate me, which i know won't help.
