I got him a year and a half ago and he started doing the same thing. I didn't have the heart to put him down but I kept him in isolation for a good 9 months or so and he is still alive and doing well today. His problem has improved a bit and doesn't twitch nearly as much as he used to but will try and "grab" you still. He eats, sheds, defecates all normal but he is just special....I hope this helps and at least you know of someone with the same issue. The breedeer I talked to wasn't much help other than refunding my money but he did say he had 3 other's like that and I guess he ended up putting them down....

Take care
