|  | Friend of huey Subscriber | | | | I am now of the opinion that wether i wash my hands thoroughly, or not, my bhps don't care. If they are hungry they will attempt to eat me.
Fortunatly, by spending hours studying their feeding responses I have learnt to pre-empt their attempt at grabbing my hand by just the smallest margin, well for today anyway!

I can tell with mine as soon as I open their enclosure if they're going to bite - they throw themselves out of the cage at me

My BHP likes to have a bite when I get him out.
