Congrats, sounds like he has a great new owner. Aside from reading up on igs (James Hatfield's book is awesome), vet checkups including fecal and blood work, and proper diet, uv lights, heat, and cage setup....you will have to give him TIME! There is no substitute...it will take him awhile to realize you are a nice owner and aren't going to hurt him, maybe you'll even give him some yummy treats. Try putting a shirt with your scent in his cage, visit him often, talking softly, giving treats, warm baths, slow movements, etc.

Good luck and keep us posted!
