This is Pixie a nasty tempered Biak type. I've had her for two years and she has regular mouth rot due to bashing her head on everything that moves or indeed doesn't move when shes in a strop.

She bites and hurts like hell if you get near her.

Shes started eating again after three months treatment for mouth issues.

At rest she looks ok!!



Then she wakes up and starts to figure out how to get you!!



Strange thing is even though she is a devil I really like her

I have heard of some GTP's being moody but i suppose it like humans. some are always grumpy and some are less grumpy then others. i hope the mouth rot clears up for you she looks very nice indeed. probably guna look more into getting myself one next year some time.

The mouth rot cleared up nicely and shes eating and biting well.

Unfortunately she is such a grouch that if upset she will constantly stike at any movement near the viv.........hence she bruises her mouth and set of the infection.

She is the only Biak out of (6 which I own) that cannot be trusted.

If you get her out on a good day she will crawl al over and then chew on you without even striking at you... bloody hurts Confused Confused Confused
