He will be surprised, and will either start eating or shove it aside. When he opens mouth again, more leaf. Pick him up, following the open mouth with the leaf, repeating until he tires of it, and stops trying to bite every time. Everyday, same thing until he realizes the open mouth greeting doesn't work the way it once did. DO NOT poke him with the leaf if his mouth is closed. This is how you want him to greet you! :wink:
I have used this technique with some of mine along the way, and it usually works. Let me know if it works for you.
Ive been working something like this for the last few weeks with my youngest, It was like one day she woke up and wanted to be awnry. She hasnt gotten me, yet.
