Im due to pick up my first ever BP next monday, (I think you can see a pic of him as my profile pic.. sorry new to all of this lol) Hes from one of last years clutches. My fiance has king snakes, and to be honest they scare the crap outta me... EVERY single one has bitten me, one will even go as far as to deliberatly rub against my pulse point before taking a hit, but i do love snakes, and i saw this boy and absolutely fell in love with him, and he just seems such a sweet nature. I guess my question is... even though i have snakes in the house, none of them are mine, and tbh apart from getting bitten i dont have anything to do with them, what is the best way to go about settling my new boy in, some people have said to handle from when u get it, others have said to wait a few weeks, i guess im scared leaving him a few weeks, incase he forgets what hands are and starts biting meI am intending to put 2 hides in as they like to hide dont they? one at each end and a medium sized water dish for drinking. I have the choice of either a 2ft vivarium, or 3ft vivarium to use, but i could really use some help with that... i dont know which one would be better... small and cozy, or larger. I could ask a million questions so i guess i will start at this or i will end up writing an essay!!
Any help will be really greatfully recieved!
