    Red face Hatchling vs. adult with a new owner?

    I haven't found info on this yet, so I thought I would post! I just joined a couple days ago... I don't yet have a ball python (and have never owned a snake), but I really really would like to... I'm still deciding between a corn snake or a BP though, and have done some research on both. :o

    The thing I was wondering is if an already calm/handled large adult would be feisty and nervous again with a new owner? Would it be better for me to start off with the feisty hatchling and let them slowly settle down over time, and would obtaining an adult just be more difficult? Or would they be calm with me from being handled for years by another person?

    I might've just asked the same question a million times, but trying to get my point across.. thanks in advance! :3
