When I first got him he wasn't handled that much he was a 3 year old lizard that wasn't too keen on being handled. But he was never aggressive, he was just skittish and squirmy. Honestly I haven't worked with a whole bunch but now he'll eat out of my hand and let me pick him up without much struggle. About the tail, in the beginning he got me a couple times with it. Its pretty surprising how much power they can generate with that tail. But thats really their only defense, they don't bite. But I've seen pics of people bleeding from the big Egyptians giving them a tail whip, but thats from a 3ft uro. Once you build some trust with these guys they are the best lizards you can ask for.
