One of mine, the first leo I got, use to do that when it was younger. When I went to pick it up, it would hiss and in away try to bite me. Now she as calm and gentle as an angel. I would recommend hand feeding it with small forceps or tounge. That's what I did mine and with a little bit of handling she calm right down. You can hand feed mealworm and crickets, and waxworm if you like. Good luck!
