Angry imma bite your face!

just had gary out for a handle, so he gets to know me and vice versa, when he pulls himslf up to my eye level and just under arms length away, when like lightining he stirkes for my FACE!!! mouth wide open and hissing!!!!

luckily he missed by about 3/4" i reckon, but dear god he put the up me! i natrually crapped my pants and ducked, gary was then promptly placed back inside his exo terra, and now he's S'd up about 4" from the door just daring me to go back in!

im more surprised at the sheer randomness of the event, oh and the speed in which the lil blighter moved!

i was talking at the time so maybe he picked up on the hot breath i was exhalling? either way more care will be undertaken for future handling sessions

*garys a ATB BTW*
