My BP is kinda similar in the handling department, he likes to climb the branch I put in his enclosure, and he'll stay there for up to an hour until I take him out. Then, when I put him back, it can take him up to an hour to go back into hiding. Curious lil' critter! Also, same like yours, I've never seen him display any majorly defensive behavior when he doesn't want to be handled. The most defensive he's ever been is when I first got him, and he only hissed at me and didn't even lunge when I scooped him up then! I've had him for a month now, and I've only ever seen him hiss once! I guess my BP's a pacifist XD
