    Talking New Girl, First Snake, Dying for tips and Advice

    Hello Everyone! =) I am so excited to be a part of this site and have so many knowledgeable people to ask! I have just got my first Ball Python(Cleo- short for Cleopatra obviously) about 4 days ago. I've done/am doing a lot of research so I know as much as possible. I am very open and basically asking for the best tips you've ever heard or things you do, that a newbie like me wouldn't know. I am also a huge fan of photography so i'll probably always have pictures of my beautiful girl.

    Cleo


    Don't mind the no make-up look








    Love when she stands up, my favorite thing she does!








    Thanks for looking, and like I said: Looking for any advice!

    thanks so much! I'm alrealdy addicted, so my big question is.....is it really necessary for me to leave her alone for about a week, because it is alrealdy so hard! To be honest I have been handling her a lot and i've alrealdy fed her and she ate VERY WELL, she has alrealdy pooped, no problems what-so-ever, and she has shown no signs of aggressiveness. So if i did "over-handle" her, what would be the consequences?
