Hello there.

Not sure if a shed is coming on or what... but s/he is becoming more and more reclusive/ skittish; borderline aggressive.

Once out of the viv everything is fine... but the hard part is getting him/her out of the viv. even if I take the hide out while s/he is perched on top s/he is still very skittish and will just sit there and freak out at every little touch.

I'm not really sure what to do, it's like everything I try just has the opposite effect. Haven't even been able to handle him/her except for putting my hand in the viv and just leaving it there for a few minutes while I observe hoping s/he will get used to me.

I know part of the problem might be the feeding schedule, I am having to feed about every other day because all I have is pinkies right now which are way too small. and are digested and no lump within 6 hours.
 
It does sound like she might be getting ready to shed. I would just leave her alone. I would also feed her a couple pinks every 5 days instead of 1 every couple days.
