Lol - he's new - could have just picked him up, bless.

But you're wise - better to let him settle - he'll tame down in no time.

Let him have 3 consecutive feeds, then try picking him up; little git will be happy and bloated and settled in and won't want to nip ...

He was bluffing, notice how he struck when you were moving away and not when you were at a point where you was touching him and a greater threat to him. Did he actually make contact with teeth or just butt his head off you?

He was like one of those 'brave' people who say something when you're walking away in an altercation, lol.
