hi everyone
i jsut got a ball python about 5 days ago. i just found this website today and i am adjusting everything to fit the info on this website.ive got my temps corect and have 2 hides on either end of enclosure.
the thing im worryed about is that i have been holding my snake already, i was thinking was that it would help him feel comfortable knwoing im not a threat. i have heald him 2 times a day for the past 3 days and it been for like 10 minutes and then i would hold my hand infront of his cage tell he slither into it( im very patient haha).
he dosnt come out of his hide on his own and also what should i do for the future? if i stop holding him for awhile now will he remember me as somone that hes not comfortable with? should i just keep holding him now that i have?
thanks everyone for replies
p.s. he feeds in 2 days
