Yeah, Percy (biter in question) had a rough start in life I watched the little bugger poke his head out of the shell, and when he was completely out of the egg, I had to pick him up to transfer him from th incubator to his "baby box". He snapped at me twice when I opended the top of the incubator! That was in Sept. (2nd to be exact) He never took a meal, and after his 8th week of no eating, i finally had to start forcefeeding, cause he started loosing weight. I had to forcefeed him his next five or six meals, and then he finally started eating on his own. i handled him only to take him out for feeding and cleaning, and now that he eats well, and has been gaining weight, I try to handle him once or twice a week for about 10 mins. He does feel comfortable in his cage though, as he enjoys climbing the branches and sleeping in the hides. I watch him...at a distance so I know he is doing well in his cage. it is only when someone gets close that the heavy breathing starts, then the snapping, and the nervous "qiuck tongue flicker".....
