Stressed while handling?

[djstarfall]

I've had my juvenile ball for 3 months now, and she is a very good eater, sleeps all day and night in her hiding spot, sometimes getting up to drink, so overall a happy ball. The stress however is when I take her out. I know she's young (around 6 months if I had to guess) , but I try to take her out everyday (except for 2 days after feeding or while she's in deep shed) but somehow she is still stressed out when I take her out. She has various moods when I take her out though. Sometimes she balls up and pokes out her head a little but does nothing besides that, other times she frantically tries to get away. Now to think of it I don't think she's really ever been casually meandering and exploring. It's starting to hurt my feelings haha. I know people say snakes just "tolerate" being held, but I want her to not be stressed when I do! Any tips or tricks? Thanks!

I have a 6 month old boy some 3 months ago. He was really tense and struck several times at first. Over time with frequent handling (maybe once or twice a week for 10 mins each time), he seems to be slightly better. He does however try to squirm out of my hands when he sees a chance. Hopefully he will grow up to be like my 9 month old girl. She's very tame
