So I picked up Jake, who is a male HET PIED BP right before Christmas. He is about 8 months old and eats weekly. He is kept in a rack system and all of his requirements are met far as temps, humidity, water, and a hide. For whatever reason, he has become upset and has been striking at me. Even if I slide the tub out, he goes into this hissing fit. Now he has hissed before, but that was during his shed. I got back into this hobby for my 9 year old son, and he has been enjoying it. But now since he has seen Jake strike at me multiple times, he wants nothing to do with him. My question now is, should I get rid of Jake or....? Any tips or suggestions on dealing with this is greatly appreciated.

Here is Mr Jake for those of you that haven't seen him
