The suggestion about the towels is good and should work.

For food, you might try offering some soft-bodied insects, such as moth or butterfly larva, fly maggots, and spiders.

It sounds like the big guy is stressed-out. Greens are not generally known as biters - but, individual temperments do vary. I have a Dessert King, normally known for their laid-back personality, that I have named "Psycho" - you can imagine why!

Give him time to settle in and avoid handling unnecessarily. You might think about what could cause stress and try to modify those conditions. Things like view blockers, larger enclosure, climbing oppurtunities, correct photoperiod and humidity, people traffic, vibration, and controling curious furry pets, etc.

Good luck with your greenies.
