Well, generally, not letting them bite you the first time is a good idea, as once they taste blood they turn into vampires!!! but, if you are having a biting problem, you could dip your fingers in vinegar or other unsavory things like hot sauce. It doesn't hurt them, but they certainly don't like it.....

A nicer way would be to handle them with gloves, but that doesn't solve the problem.....

After a while, though, it should reduce their biting nature, as they aren't accomplishing anything.

I want to get to the point where I can handle her without her attacking me but if it's bad I think I'll try the gloves. Maybe something like garden gloves...?

Lunatic

Yes, gardening gloves.

Washing your hands is another clear fire way to maker he stop seeing them as snacks. We touch a lot of things during the day, and sometimes all hamsters smell is the food.

Picking her up a lot will also get her more used to the idea.

Gardening gloves, got it. Also, ok, so we really don't have baby carrots but we have regular carrots so I think I'll try working with those sometime. emotion_yatta

She bit me when I tried to pet her while she was grooming, so I don't think I'll be wiser about when I bother her next time. Also my PTSD from the bite is wearing off so when I get a chance tonight or tomorrow I'll try getting friendly with her again. Only slowly this time. I'm still nervous about outright picking her up. This time, we'll take it reeeeal slow. > u>

I could never get my hamsters to stop biting me. If they did it too much, I just stuck them in their little plastic ball and let them run around my room as punishment. I don't think they got the fact that they were being punished.

I realize again that we have a lot of really tall guys in this RP...
