Im hoping to get some advice as to why my chin is acting the way he is. He is around 5 years old. I let him out in his room to romp about every day and when I went to put him away tonight and give him his treat, he wouldn't take it. He was frozen. He was back in his cage already and was so still. So I set his treat down and picked him up. He usually hops away so I thought that was weird. Then he let me hold him while he closed his eyes for about 2 min. Which NEVER happens as he is Mr. Ants in his pants. He started making his quiet squeaks that he makes when he's running about etc But did it for over 2 min. So I set him back down and he ran like he was scared and went to the back corner of his pen. Stretched up really tall then I went to scratch him and he freaked out so I stepped back. He went back to the corner of his pen and froze for a good minute then started ramming into the corner. He would stick his nose hard against the bars, then back up and ram himself into it. Any ideas of what this could be? Very erratic behavior for him. Maybe it's nothing but just curious.
