    Preparing for first snake and had some questions.

    So I will get my first ball python this upcoming Monday. My plan was to introduce him and let his get acclimated for the first week without handling at all. I would check his tub daily to make sure it’s clean, give water, spot clean but just let him be. I was thinking I would feed him the following wed. I would feed him whatever the breeder was feeding whether that be live, f/t, whatever and then was hoping to handle for the first time that weekend. Does all of this seem appropriate? He weighs roughly 100 grams so he is a little guy. I figured if I let him acclimate 10 days before feeding he should eat for me no problem. Any feedback would be appreciated.
