I've read they can be bitey as babies but they are so small they can't break the skin. I was bitten by a baby spotted a lot of attitude for such a tiny snake.

They can still break skin. The thin teeth go through skin to pierce blood cells, even at their size. But they quickly calm down.

Maybe just my experience it didn't break mine.
