Ok so i got my new BCI on Sunday, handled him for about 5 minutes before i put him in the tank, and then he just sat, curled up in the corner, not moving, looking very very pissed off. Tuesday I fed him because i found out he hadnt been fed in 10 days due to the expo and stress and blah blah so i fed him tuesday night. Today was the first day i came home to walk into my room to find him not curled up in the corner, but instead kinda spread out with a trail in the aspen that looks like he had been roaming around. Once i got back in the room he got on edge and stayed a bit spread out but "S"ed up and lifted his head toward me still a little pissy.

Im not about to reach into his tank and handle him yet, i want him to have at least a weak before i start handling him, its what i did with my BPs and they are amazing.

but the question. Should i give him a week and then get gloves and show him whos poss, or should i give him as long as he wants till he doesnt seemed stressed out? Hes eating so i know he isnt in bad shape stress wise, but htis being my first boa idk. My husbandry is spot on, 87-88 hot side during the day and 85-86 during the night and humidity always above 55% and the highest 70% after a light misting (once a day)
