The whole "smelling fear" thing, you know? Be confident! He won't bite you, and even if he does so what? Are you going to let a little nip ruin your enjoyment of your pet?
I don't mind him biting me while he's only 2foot. Its when he's bigger I'm worried about! But hopefully confidence and handling will help thank you
