I have with a juvi I got earlier this year. I was going to name him Triggers after a BP I lost last year that tried to get a piece of me every chance he got. He was fine outside of his bin but getting him out you were just about guaranteed 2 strikes from him. The new juvi was turning out to be the same way and they are the same het with similar color and markings so go figure.

My nieces and nephews were over one weekend and wanted to see the new babies. I warned them before I took him out since they were holding the other ones,.. "this ones a look but don't touch unless you want to get bit" so I held him. He was some what calm didn't puff up and arch like he usually did but, I know better. It's not if he'll strike or bite,.. but when.

When I took him out he balled up and was cool for a bit. I turned my head to say something to somebody and as I looked back he struck out of the ball. Which is something I've never seen before and down he went. He plopped onto the carpet and I picked him.

We both learned something that day,... I don't take my eyes off of him even when he's in a ball and he doesn't strike as much as he use too. Only a couple of times in his bin but not at all when he's out.
