2)Bitter spray on your hands
3) Take a can and drop a few beans in it to make a shaker. When he bites shake it. The noise will make him stop. (This didn't work with any of mine, just scared the poop out of them)
4)Lay him on his back and hold him there til he calms down. (which should only take a few seconds) and say no biting.
Hope this helps |
thankyou again. the tip about the bitter spray might be a good one. i do do that thing where i 'yelp' as in the inhibited bite but it hasn't seemed to stop him. that's interesting about what you've said about putting him on his back because when i try to do that, he struggles so violently that i'm worried he's going to break his neck. i've tried to do it quite a few times but every time i've let him go because he just won't calm down
