Agressive!

Here's a pic I snapped today of my mean Nosy Faly!
He's 3.5 months old - sorry for the bad quality!

Every time I go near him, he flares, hisses, and tries to bite me!

I just got him from a breeder on Wednesday, so I'm going to try and tame him and hand-feed him - once he eats some food because he's eaten nothing for 4 days now! (hopefully because of stress)

Looks like you made the right decision on the cham!

Give him time, my guy did this for about a month. Every time i walked in the room he would puff up. Try to leave him alone for a week. Just observe him from a distance other then feeding time. When it comes to hand feeding i cant help you there. My guy will not take food from me, Infact when i walk in the room he stops eating all together which i hate cuz thats one of the best parts about owning a cham.

Aw, I hope my guy will eventually eat in front of me..That is also one the things I'm looking very forward to! - keep trying to hand feed him!

i will sit there for 20 min at a time and he does not budge. I hope he gets over it.
