Tips on making a baby ball python less shy?

[The Golem]

I've taken quite a few, I don't know what morph she is either. I plan to take her to a friend who is a breeder to properly probe her, so I can know the sex, since I do not want to attempt that on my own, even if I was shown how. I've named her Venus, even if she turns out to be male, I'll keep the name since I can see it being a unisex name.

Ball pythons are nocturnal predators from Africa. They are instinctively and physiologically hard-wired to sleep during the light and heat of day, and be active in the cool dark evenings and dawns and avoid large open areas.
Maybe if you want it be less shy and feel secure you could accommodate its natural inclinations.
