So, I've had an Ig in my office for a few weeks now and I've been very slowly building trust and was actually making some progress. All good things must end and I've been transfered to a different department and no longer have an office where I can keep an Ig enclosure. Tonight was moving night and I had to bring her home. Even though I've been making slow progress I was no where near being able to pick her up and removing her from her enclosure was not a very pleasant expirence for either of us (she actually bit the fool out of me, which is understandable).

She's at home now and I have the top of her enclosure covered with sheets (which will have to be removed in the morning when the lights come on) so she can have some privacy.

Dose something like this mean starting over? Do I leave her alone for a week or two before trying again or to I continue like I have been doing for the last few weeks?
