Hi Jon it's Jase, are you going in confidently to her or hesitating?

Hey Jase

I go in confidently mate and just let her bite me if she wants too.

She even strikes at me whilst i'm handling. I hold her with my left and she'll have a pop at my right hand if it comes anywhere near her.

She'll tame down i'm sure.it'll just take a bit of time Smile

I found that running your spare hand along underneath your holding arm, up to her, as opposed to waving your arm in front of her, worked well. This way you can 'handle' her as opposed to just holding her. Also, let her touch you first Cool

Should work Laughing

Those bites look good though mate Wink
