Leave him alone for a few days to get used to the new environment.

I've been lucky, the first one i got was very curious and was happy to be handled within a couple of days. Curled up on my lap the day I got him whilst drivin home in the car.

id be leaving it for at least a week or so without being touched and let he or he settle inbefore u go touching her

Dont even think about holding it until it has first become an established feeder( after 12-15 positive feeds). When it has, i would hook it out (using a modified wire coat hanger)and place it into your hand and make your movements slow and deliberate.

i was lucky with my mac because i bought as a 7month old and he was a great handler and was quite happy to curl up on my hand
and has never bitten and hasnt even shown a hint of agression im very happy with him
but yea take serpenttongue's advice and you should have no problems i know its hard to resist holding them lol
good luck and all the best
