    Re: Comfortable snake?

    If my snake is biting me.... or striking ... I think it may want to go back into its home...

    Seriously: after having a snake for a long period of time I have got to know many of my babies. I have one GTP he just loves to come out and explore so happy to roam around.

    So I just say watch your snake I think it will let u know. Many ball pythons are shy so if u hold them for a period of time it will feel that it’s safe and come out and look around.

    Re: Comfortable snake?

    Now if a snake is not eating in its first 2 weeks is it ok to handle it at that point or no?

    Handling your snake will just make it even more likely to eat. It is best to get a snake eating consistently before handling.
