Oh I'd forgotten about the handling issue
I'd say that Royals are fabulous for handling , if anyone comes to visit and wants to handle a snake for the first time I always choose one of my Royals as they're just so predictably calm and docile and will happily sit in there hands for as long as they like ( I'm taking minutes not hours lol ) . Sure people say Royals just tolerate handling and don't like it but how can anyone be sure about what a snakes thinking anyways . Presumably all snakes that can be handled just tolerate handling ...
Remember Royals are nocturnal and when we get them out during the daytime they are will be naturally subdued . I don't see anything wrong with you having a short 15 - 20 minute handling session each day , just avoid for 48 hours after feeding ( when they're digesting the meal ) .
I'm done ....for now .
Good luck whatever you choose to do ...
PS
PM me anytime with any questions or queries ... especially any concerns as regards feeding !!
