    Question Daily Handling

    Is it ok to handle a baby BP on a daily basis as long as it's not about to shed or after a meal?

    I go by the mood of the snake. As long as they arent getting stressed it should be ok. My corn hated being handled as a baby, and now he "tollerates" it. My BP on the other hand comes up to the doors on his cage whenever I go in the room, so my general rule is if he comes to the doors then I'll hold him, if he stays in his hide I leave him alone.
