So for the past few days, whenever I feed clarice in the morning and tidy up her cage a little before starting my day, she’s been making some noises while eating. It ranges from a deeper grunt to a high whimper. This is the only time I have ever heard a noise from her, besides gulping when she drinks. This morning is what worried me. She pooped all over her cage over night, and when I tried to tidy it up while she was eating the grunting was much louder and she lunged at me every time I even touched one of her poops. She didn’t try to bite me, but her body language warned me that she might if I persisted, so I let her alone. I have no idea why she would be mad at me, if that’s the case. She and her two sisters get a ton of play time and a lot attention. Yesterday they didn’t as much but we were very busy. However, they don’t have a schedule. They get between 1 and 12 hours of time in a day depending on us but weekly they get more than enough exercise and are content. Clarice is about 6 months old now. I can’t think of anything that changed for her recently besides a blanket washing and rotation between the three of them. But we’ve always done this and it never bothers anyone as long as they’re washed before. Could this just have been a one time thing, hormones, or what?
