Give him lots of time....he's really stressing!Will take him awhile before he figures you out....for all he knows youre gonna eat him!
Speak softly and carry a big towel! Some igs NEVER tame, you cannot tame instinct out of them..so be on your gaurd, and keep your hands, arms, protected with gloves, wrist gaurds, what have you in the interim. Stick to a routine of feeding, handling, cleaning etc. He'll come around. But I'd give him a few weeks of no-handling at all until he acclimates to his new digs!
