Leave him/her alone until it is eating; priority one. After that's fully established, I took the advice of the guy who bred my hybrid: the teeth and claws only do more damage the older they get: go through it sooner than later. Having said that, mine only bit me once, but tail whipped like crazy. The key is patience (and treats). Others have lots of further advice to go along with that.

DON'T force them... cyclura have long memories.
