My savy is only 12in. at the moment. He bit me a few times when I first got him almost 4 months ago, but never bit me ever since. If anything, he'll lick my hand, but won't bite it. Depending on his behavior, I'll decide if leather gloves will be needed when he reaches decent size. I KNOW EXSACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN, but my savy is not even 5 months old. I started to pet him on his head and neck when I had him for 1 month. I was able to pick him out of him cage after almost 3 months. I took it really slow, and gave him enough time to settle, become comfortable, and confident enough. I finally feel like he accepts me. He finally realizes that I'm am not a THREAT. I just feel like, without any interactions or handling, he won't be as FRIENDLY. As long as my actions and movements ARE NOT threatning, my savy doesn't hiss, whip, or bite. I just want to keep it that way. I am not FORCING him to do ANYTHING. Thanks for saying what you had to say, because it's the truth. I was just curious on people's opnions and advice. Thanks again.

Se7en,
