He's a biter!

Thank you!

Thank you so much to everyone who responded. After reading most of the responses a few days ago I was confident enough to just stick my (mitten covered) hand in there and get him! I've done it three days in a row now and he still strikes at me every time but I think it's getting progressively better. Once he's out of the viv and in my hands he doesnt bite anymore, he's just a little jumpy. Hopefully after a few weeks of this 5 minute handling a day routine Ive got going on he'll realize he likes me! Thanks again!

Try leaving one of the mittens in the viv after a handling session, that way he'll have your scent around him and will become accostomed to it that much quicker.
