I looked in his cage a few minutes ago & found the rat I fed him, uneaten. So, yes, it appears he's thinking of any cage entrance as food at this point because he was looking "strikey" this time too, & I had to put a little wall between him & the rat to get it out w/o getting bit.

This is such a shame, he's always been such a wonderful, calm, handle-able little guy. I haven't handled him as much the last month or so as school & life have been really busy. Any suggestions for ways of getting him out to hold now w/o getting bit? Am I going to need to go buy a snake hook?
