I got 2 collard lizards about 6 months ago and i have ben handling them almost everyday and 1 of them is still tryin' to bite me everytime my hand gets close. The other one lets me pick it up with out any problems. I have been laying in the bathroom with them to get them used to me being around, running on me, and stuff like that but that 1 still isnt used to me. Does anyone have any tips for me and my collards?!?!?!?!?!,PLEASE HELP!!!!

Just keep doing what your doing, sounds fine be patient, offer the one who trys to bite a tasty snack, a nice wiggly superworm, or moth, from your hand.
Always approach from the front or side (low) so he/she can see you, never from above, like a bird, that would swoop down to eat them

The biter is just nervous and fears you, so be gentle and understanding and take it super slow. One day you will be very happy when he just jumps into you hand and does not try and bite anymore Post some pics when ya can, so we can see them.

You have Spidey, which one bites, him or the female?

Yea.. Spiderman is mine. He is the one that bites. I tried to put pictures on here one time, but it didn't work.
