Did you give it a week or so before you started handling it? If not, then it may be worth giving it a week on its own to get settled in properly - after that, regular handling (starting at about 15 minutes at a time) should slowly calm it down. Also bear in mind that you should try and ensure that all handling sessions end on a "good" note - i.e. don't put it back in the tank/faun if it has just bitten you, wait until it has calmed down again  .
I hope this helps, and i hope to see some pics soon...welcome to the forum btw |

| Be a good idea to start the 7days from now with out handling. Only going into its housing to change water and poop clean. To allow it to adjust to its new environment, smells, sounds etc. Then handle for around 10mins a day after that 7day period. |

the sigs are
1.0.0 = 1 male of what ever
0.1.0 = 1 female
0.0.1 - unsexed
the feed time isn't a problem leaving it for 12 days corns can go weeks or months without food, just allow it time to settle, it may take a feed, but mine both had a week to settle before i fed them and they were fine |

is 2002 the bug-eye?
i'd love something with a turbo but tbh i'd be nearing a driving ban by now if i had one lol i've got a heavy right foot
the non-turbos still go pretty well but fortunately don't drink half the juice either!  and a non-turbo is better for towing the grass harrow round the field.......still trying to convince myself i don't need one with a turbo lol |
