Just got my 2nd bp. He's a hatchling and he hasn't been handled too terribly much. I've had him for a week, he's eaten for me once. Here's the problem. Every time I go in to try and pick him up (a whole twice now) he automatically goes into defense mode and tries to tag me. Tonight there was a whole lot of hissing and me using something between him and me to put his hide back (and he struck at it!) and he won. LOL why am I so afraid of a little baby bp? He's just over 100 grams so he's a little feller. So please tell me all about your horrific hatchling bite stories. I guess I could go through the 23 page bite topic, but I'd rather not! Pics are great, too! I keep trying to tell myself it's not that bad but then I wimp out! Argh! I am so embarrassed to be putting up this topic...
