got bit.

Before everyone goes crazy.. Yes i know this is directly my fault.
She would not eat, harley ever or anything no matter what and never out side of the cage dispite my multiple attempts. it was too the point where she was getting very skinny i just had to feed her in her cage... Now she has a big appetite and eats almost when ever and whatever.

This is now turning into a bad case of cage aggression (only when food is around) and needs to be reversed.

Lol... "Ow" .
I would say start feeding her outside of the cage. I don't know if you use the same bowl or not but they can and do recognize it when you do. Also if she was use to eating live food that she had to chase down, the smell of food and your hand moving could have also triggered it.

Yea she knows the plate, and i deff have to start feeding out side the cage!
We feed her frozen food but she always gets excited when she sees it coming in.. today a litte too excited perhaps

Try going into the cage several times a day and doing other things besides feeding. Whenever I go into Gwangi's cage, the first thing I do is pet him and rub his back. Then I either clean or do cage maintenance or feed him. He does know the bowl, but I can put it in front of him or take it away with no food aggression. Don't let your tegu think that every time the cage opens, it means food. Gwangi jumps on my shoulder most every time I open the top. He knows that riding on my shoulder means free roam time in the living room.

So this morning.. shes ready to eat again looking around and giving me the im hungry face.. so what i didwas open the top and began to mist her and the cage wich threw her off a little. she closed her eyes and enjoyed the mist then i started petting her. took her out and then fed her after a little while of running around on the bed.
