If you get a chance take a look at the new video jkobylka put up today on his youtube channel. He goes through dealing with snippy hatchlings. Honestly his advice is spot on so its worth a look. Its best to take charge of the situation not allow some fear snapping worry you much. Just be glad that you got him early and not at 2000g with an attitude problem.
Good Luck
