Ahh he's all good now! Finished shedding, had him out a few times.. Still hissing when I try to pick him up but no striking or anything. Just the nerves I think! :) I would post a pic but I don't think you can on my phone :(

Josephine it doesn't hurt at all but it is fast and frightening tasks a long time to get used to.

Its the initial shock thats the worse bit but they strike about three times faster than human reaction times so pulling away in pointless, worrying about it is pointless too as by the time you know its happening, its over. If its a feeding response there may be a small chance of them not letting go straight away or even giving you a thoroughly good squeeze to go with it just concentrate on how amazingly strong they are and I'm sure you'll be more fascinated than hurting.

Still never been bit, my angry little corn had a good go before though! I was off guard trying to clean his tank a bit and he had a misplaced strike! Lucky escape, infact no, he's thinner than my little finger!
