how often do you hold your snakes?

Cage cleaning is the big one. Over the winter I didn't handle them as much since the house was fairly cool. Now that the weather has warmed up they get to come out a lot more.

I'm with Nadud - almost daily, except after feeding and the shedding times

Me too [emoji14] I go for at least half an hour a day!

1.2 Normal
1.1 Red-tail
0.1 Albino corn

I hold my younger snakes at least three times a week for usually half hour to hour long periods. Anything older than two that knows me well I dial down to a twice a week minimum. This does not include any times I've moved them around for care or bathing, etc.

I like to condition my snakes to be less frightened of people because I take them to a summer nature camp every year to teach kids about them. I'm glad to say the snakes have never tried to hurt a child and are super chill :)

I usually skip the day BEFORE feeding day, and I don't handle for 48 hours after feeding, but handle every day between then... so I handle 4 days a week, and skip 3 days straight.

ETA: Except for Cake, I still handle the day before feeding day- because it does not affect him whatsoever. He is a voracious eater for live mice. :|

Handled the new burm baby daily.

I have been holdings my retics every day for a while. Burm usually is out once a day....the balls get held more by the wife and any company
