    Quick questions
    Well im in the feeding stages finally my bp is eating every week so happy. Now that im holding him and getting him uste to me just 2 questions. When hes out of his hide on a branch laying in the heat is it ok to pick him up. The one time i did he made a run for his hide, didnt hiss or anything just went into his hide.

    Two if he crawls on my bed do i need to wash the sheets?

    He is going to run to his hide. That is natural. Ball Pythons do not normally seek out human interaction. This is typical behavior and nothing to worry about.

    As far as your sheets go, if your snake peed on them, then yes I would wash them. Otherwise, there isn't much to worry about.

    It is ok to pick him up. Most BP's will try to run when you pick them up.

    I wouldn't be too worried about the sheets, but I wouldn't let him on pillow cases. Many people have a towel dedicated to snakes. That way you don't what to worry at all.
