Do you feed anything but mice? You could try feeding worms and fish as well. Sometimes mine get cranky if they decide they want another food source for a bit.

What kind of lighting is she exposed to? I have two albinos and two that aren't, and both my albinos go nuts and have horrible aim whenever there is food around. They can clearly see, but I think their vision is more sensitive than non-albinos. Try putting your hand on the outside of the tank and tapping and see if you get the same crazy response to just your presence, or if she's reacting to your smell or the fact you're on the inside of the tank.

She definitely tries to attack me from both the outside and inside, haha. But she just has a regular incandescent light bulb on a timer. I would wonder if maybe the lighting was bothering her, but she's had the same type of bulb for nearly 2 years and just started acting like this a few weeks ago.

I will try the rubber gloves thing too!
