When I bought my burm I got her specifically to use in presentations I do for the local public school system. Well, after a few months of my burm huffing and puffing and the occasional strike I thought she would never be suitable to use as a presentation animal. Well, she's currently a year old and has become much more docile. She still does the huff and puff when I reach into her cage to take her out but once she's out she's a perfect angel and very friendly. Give your burm time and use regular handling sessions and I'm sure yours will come around also. At only a year old and 8' long I still don't trust her enough to be handled by the children but I don't mind bringing her around and letting them pet her (while I keep her head up on my shoulder or behind me.) With patience your will be more sociable too. Good luck, Scott.
