How much handling?

I was just wondering how much ya'll handle your BPs? I know people with many snakes/breeders won't handle them as much...but what about those of us with only one or a few?
I may be handling my girl a little more than most...I usually have her out once or twice a day, unless she is in shed or the day after eating. Is this too much? She isn't showing any signs of stress at all.
Or is wanting to handle more often a good excuse to get another one to feed my addiction? ;)

If you're handling her twice a day and she's eating regularly, putting on weight consistently, pooping and shedding you're fine.

Thank you for bringing this up...everything is fine with eating/drinking/weight/sheds in one piece....but she only poops once maybe every 3 weeks? I've read so many conflicting info on how often they should poop...is this not enough?

3 weeks is fine. Some poop weekly or bi-weekly, some poop monthly or every 6 weeks. There's no set schedule, you just learn what your snake's general schedule is as time goes along.
