I know this clown ended up being a problem, but Jewel was really broken in easily with the branch. She bit and bit but eventually crawled over my hands when she had a branch.

I miss the early days with Wallace. I wish had some Jewel branch pictures. She came around rapidly after I started using a branch to handle her.
Most of the time she’s on her perch and I just pull the whole thing out of the tub and let her do what she wants. Tonight was actually the first couple bites she’s landed in a while.

How often are you handling her? For about how long?
Thanks man! She really is getting better with every shed.
Handling maybe a few times a week, for at least 5min at a time. Longer if she’s being relaxed.

Spot cleaning her tub earlier and she poked her head out of a hide very inquisitively, not defensive. Handled for a little bit and she was pretty well behaved. I think she’s just going to be a bit nervous until she gets more size.

Last few handling sessions with this critter have been splendid. Hasn’t even squared up on me in strike posture in a while now
