Slow and stead will help. Start handling sessions slow~5min then gradually move up to longer sessions, soon they will be more comfortable with you and will tolerate handling a lot more. Or yours can be like my black pastel who will bite me every chance he gets.
Don't handle for 2 days after feeding, and I would give your bp some time to adjust, he's new. He's scared(new environment). I would wait untill he has had 3 consecutive feeding(3 weeks) before you start handling him. Try to keep handling to a minimum untill he has fed 3 time consecutively.
