:main_huh: Prudence the wench just bit Beatrice. She is such a wench! She's bit me and she's bit Beatrice.

I had just fed them and they were both happily eating. Maybe Prudence mistaked her for food?? I've never noticed them being aggressive towards one another.


Most importantly, Beatrice is fine, she just ran away like WTF DUDE?

Sorry, off topic but I laughed at the wording in your post :) . I agree, "the wench" may have to be separated

Are you in breeding season right at your house? ALL of my geckos have been on edge for the last week or so since breedings started happening. One that is normally the BIGGEST sweetheart nipped at me last night. Lots of pheromones in the air!

We have one female that ended up having to go into a tank by herself. She lived in the community tank ( 5 girls in a 75 gal) for over a year then one day she decided to go postal. She bit 2 of the other girls then we seperated her. I'd just keep an eye on her for a day or two.

I agree, keep an eye on her for a day or two to make sure she doesn't show any more aggression, then if she does it again seperate her.
If you do not have the time to watch them, I would seperate her right away.

"The Wench" :main_laugh:

If seperation is the case, I'm afraid she'll have to find a new home. I simply do not have room for another tank. I'll also be leaving for a few months (need to find someone to gecko-sit for me. :( )

I'm hoping she just mistaked her for food. :(

If I lived closer I would offer to sit for you and take her off your hands. unfortunetly, shipping wouldn't be possible... and commuting to babysit would be impossible. XD

Who is Beatrice? Someone somewhere is saying, try to keep up Bodon...

But honestly it might be time to separate them, this happens fairly often.

I don't breed/have males, so would this apply to me?:main_huh:

How old are they? Coming into sexual maturity might have something to do with the behavior. Also is this the first time youve actually seen it happen, i mean could this have been going on for a while now and you just havent noticed it until now?

I just caught them huddling in a hidey together. I think it was just a mistake Prudence made, I don't think she really wanted to bite/be aggressive?

They are all around 6-8 months old.
