Apparently Im talking complete nonsense, even though Ive kept and raised many reptiles over the last 20 years. But heres some more. If you wanna just be able to clean his cage and not worry about him attacking you then I suggest the same as I said about handling. When he attacks, dont flee, keep working the cage, changing the water, etc. Over time he'll realize it is ok and that it is a normal thing.

If you listen to the other dude who says my advice is nonsense then just get rid of your pet. Because having the pet in the first place is "forced handling". Everything you do with it is forced...forced caging, forced feeding, forced cleaning, forced handling. None of it is natural. So quit with the "forced handling" talk.
