My male spider

He has a real bad attitude is there any hope he will grow out of it or is he going to be a butthead forever he is a real pretty snake its just his attitude that's a real bummer.

How old is he?

Probably a early 11 around july i would say got him off cl so im not sure

Keep handling him on a regular basis. Even my meanest bp's calmed down with regular handling.

Do he have proper temperatures/humidity/hides?

if everything is good then with time he should settle down. there will always be a few angry snakes but they are rare.

I got him about 3 months ago and he has been like this since i got him i can go to open his tub and he tries to get me before i get it opened.

Sounds just like my 2011 lesser male. if i don't get him immediately out of his tub, he makes the menacing S shape and gives me a real stink eye:mad:

Yes he even tries to get me while im holding him he is a little butt

My female albino and female pastel were both the same way when I got them. I just kept handling them and eventually they calmed down. They haven't struck at me in months now but they got me several times each in the beginning. I just looked at it as it was better to get the bites out of the way while they were babies than wait until they were bigger lol.
