Hawker, I just purchased my Leo also. Maybe your Leo is smaller
than mine but I got mine @ 18 grams/sub adult. I didn't touch
my Leo from day one. I waited a full week . When I did try to
grab her I used everybody's advice/searched the forum:
a) don't grab her from above
b) try and let her crawl into your hand
c) slow motions
After having my Leo for 2 weeks now, My Leo still doesn't:
a) crawl in my hand
, but she does let me handle her
without snarling @ me.
b) she also knows when feeding time is..
Be patient and I'm sure your Leo will not bite you.
My Leo has never even attempted to snarl at me, let alone
try to bite me.
Good Luck.
