Little help please? (angry veiled Cham)

[Falsetree]

My veiled was really sweet at first but now at 4 months old she is getting grumpy. I think that is fairly normal. Checkout my video I shot this morning. This was after she started to calm down

I actually laughed when she striked at you My veiled cham is 4 months and only 6cm without the tail,he's a delight to handle!Never hisses and sometimes climbs out of his viv and onto my hand willingly, 0% effort
I guess it's just the luck of the Irish!

I got her and my male around the same time, both from the same breeder and both about the same size. , the male was slightly bigger. My male is now twice as big! I would say she's about 5 inches nose to snout and looks about right in the video.

The plant is a schefflera and takes up the whole 24x24x36 cage. I actually had to prune the plant to fit it inside the enclosure. It has nice thick branches for climbing and big leaves to hide in.

She use to climb out of her cage and onto my hand up until about 2 weeks ago

my year old veiled is just the same, grumpy, hissy and bitey if my hands go in the tank. doesnt like me to watch her eat. the second i turn my head u hear a little thud of his tongue hitting the feeding cup but if i turn around hes stock still.

getting him out is an ordeal, i have to use a cunning method using a stick to both keep him from biting my hand off and giving him something to climb on to as i lift him off his branch. once hes out hes totally fine though.

currently im working on a regime of food = friends. im making slow progress but as with most men food is a tremendous motivator haha.
