Another one will not make it any better. How old is he? Have you had a vet check and a fecal exam done? How is his appetite and stool?

Maybe try a different vet. A good vet would have done a fecal exam. You have to take in a fresh sample of "poop" no more than 4 hours old and they examin it to see if there are any parasites present. The cost varies depending on where you live but is usually between $11-20. Check out the vets at this link Click Here

All you can really do is try to handle him/her more and more as days go by. I heard coming to pick up a beardy from the side is better and less threatening to the beardy. They think you are a predator if you come for above. Hope this helps. I also heard you should turn this type of behavior into snack time. When she/he is going to bite you stick veggies in their mouth.
