How long has he been like this? It can be normal but it depends on the cause, can you post a picture?

His only done it once that its been so bad, sorry i did'nt think of getting a photo. His sorter black now but only on his head??? Oh and i googled it, it said that his REALLY REALLY angry!!!
His been quite grumpy (He went to bite me the other day)
I do love Charlie with all my heart but i think his getting to aggressive :(
I pick him up everyday and i have him out for hours (till he starts feelin a bit cold) So i dont understand

My parents arn't keen on having him in the house either, due to how angry his been.

I would look into why he is being so grumpy. If he is black all the time then he may be sick or in pain, generally they only stay black for a short while if they are just mad.
Are you keeping him in a outdoor enclosure? Its possibly he is reverting to a more wild state, especially if he is healthy after being kept wrong for so many years. Can he see any wild dragons or other reptiles?
If he is just being a jerk and isn't ill then you should be able to tame him down again but you have to handle him everyday. It would probably help if he was in the house.

Yeh his kept inside, in my bedroom. His in a pretty big tank (Maybe a 4x2x2) and i have water + veggies in cage daily (fresh)

I should mention that i have a cat, because charlie's cage is on the ground at the moment due to we have not got a stand yet and my cat goes up to the window to look at him now and then?? but this has never been a problem before!
His turned black yesty and the day before, he still goes to bite me but i still pick him up daily!?

Oh and i had a chat to a friend the other, they said that they might beable to train him, do you think i should give this ago??? Hopefully this might help him as i cant think of any other reason why his angry!

Thanks!!!

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
