Man thats an awesome looking guy! I love those oranges on him! Do they light up pretty orange when you take him outside? my guys has a lot of yellow and they shine when outside! Ya see he may have been feeling a little to cramped in the other cage, and sounds like he is doing better in the bigger one! I have read a lot of people that when their chams out grow their cages they display similar actions as your guy was. Im sure he will be back to his old self in no time and probably will still want to come out, just maybe not so frantically lol. When I up graded my guy to his big one which happened to be about the same time he got his big boy attitude oddly enough lol. He was still cool with me handling him the first few days, but I noticed when he became comfortable with his new home, he really started defending it and wanted nothing to do with me. Up until then he was really chill and relaxed letting me hold, handle, and carry him around. I think he just became a little more dominant and actually took some pride in his new found area. He would puff up and hiss at me when i would try to get him out, and would even lunge with his mouth gaping at me. This went on for about a month but I worked with him and he finally got better. He is by no means the same sweet guy he used to be but he still lets me hold him. I think we just got a bit of a compromise going on, because he will let me know when he has had enough handling for a day and I abide. Its good to hear that you got it all figured out and nice to hear he is getting back to himself so quickly!
