My sulcata wants to eat my hands.
I just got a 12 inch sulcata about a week ago and have been trying to feed him by hand but he was not ready yet. I don't normally feed fruit but decided to try a strawberry dipped in calcium powder. He pulled it right out of my fingers and loved it. Then he climbed into my lap and started going after my fingers, he got one good enough to draw blood in two places. I stood up and he got my toe also. I guess he likes strawberries. I know he was just looking for more food but should I not be teaching him to eat from my hands? Has anyone else had a similar experience with sulcatas?
By the way I'm Jake in Melbourne, Florida.
