I'm gonna revise my post, Nut just bit my finger cos she thought I was a wax worm. It doesn't hurt, but it's unexpected coming from my normally sweet and more cautious eater!
Wow, this is all a bit unsettling. We are getting a Leo soon and my 9 year-old daughter will be primarily responsible for its care. I can manage a bite, but I'm afraid a bite she would receive will cause enough fear of it she'll want nothing to do with it. Is there a way to train it up to not be predisposed to biting us? When we get it it will be around 2 1/2 to 3 months.

Actually, I've been bitten where it drew blood about a half-dozen times, but this incident was when I was trying to wash the poop off of one of my males in the sink, and he chomped down at the base of my thumb and did alligator rolls for what seemed like over a minute! When he finally let go, I could see my knuckle bone poking up through all the torn flesh and blood. I called my husband to come look, and asked him if he thought I needed stitches... he turned white and said, "Ummm, y-y-yes". LOL!
