Mostly, they are shy. He stays curled up in his hide box most of the time and will burrow under any substrate deep enough or layered enough. He is pretty defensive when I get him out of his enclosure, but after a few minutes becomes inquisitive, and seems perfectly content being handled. He has never shown any kind of aggression towards me or anyone else in any situation. He eats a f/t small rat every 5 days, and has never refused a meal. When I first got him, he would take them out of my hand. Lately he has been reluctant to do that, but the rat is always gone within 2 hours if I leave it.
This is the first I have owned, but have handled a couple of others. They were much the same.
