[aceboogie09]

i just got a ball python, how often can i handle him when i first get him?
should i just let him relax and adapt to his environment?if so how long should i wait b4 i begin to handle him?

love my bp and so does my girl friend who got him for me,
looking forward to hearing all of your guys input in caring for my
new ball python!

give him a week of no handling, no feeding. Feed him after a week and don't handle him for two days after feeding. Besides that, any amount of time should be fine as long as its not hours upon hours.
