My male was the same way when he was young, but I had to force myself everyday to take him out of his cage for at least 10 minutes. (FYI, don't handle him when he's in shed and wait a few days after he's eaten). I did it with gloves at first because I always got bitten, but I was consistent. Then I noticed after a few months he started to mellow out. At one year of age, he stopped biting altogether. Now he's 3 and he's a sweetheart. This is the problem with some JCP, they are very nippy when young, but with the proper amount of handling they mellow out. Don't give up because they're so beautiful as adults and make great display snakes that are worth the effort. Good luck.
