    I check on my guys daily, so they get handled often but I don't spend copious amounts of time with any of my animals. Sometimes I'll take one out and hang out with them for a bit but it's not something I make time for in my schedule. They are all tame, and I make a point of spending time with the ones that have anxiety or aggression about handling. That's the ball pythons - the boa gets handled often, but that's because it requires exercising.

    I will hold my boa for as long as I can. She is a lap and shoulder slut, she will stay there all day if she can. I just leave her alone a day or two after she eats. My BP's I hold every day for about 30min to and hour, sometimes even longer but not that much.

    This is just how my guy is, he genuinely seems to enjoy coming out to be handled and there are days where he seems to wait for it!

    Yayy! I'm glad I'm not the only one Eva does seem to wait on me some days too if I forget to take her out or if I was too busy that day. She always seems happy to see me. Maybe Eva and your guy could meet up for a play date lol
