    Re: How Frequently Can I Handle My BP?

I'm glad you didn't mean hatchlings, but it wasn't clear, & we have to remember that many people may read these posts & may conclude the wrong things if we don't specify. And I would still say that handling any new snake before it's had time to "settle in" (be feeding without difficulty) is treating it like a toy. It's not prioritizing the snake's well-being, which is what all good keepers do.

    Anyway, this thread is specifically about BPs, so let's all stay on topic, okay?
    Agreed
