Mine's out more at times, like I'll let him free-roam in my snakeproofed room for a bit. He's also fine with being carried around for extended times.

As the others have said, it depends a lot on your snake's personality. Mine was bought specifically because he was still gregarious and curious, not snappy and defensive, even on a busy reptile show floor. I wanted a less skittish BP and prioritized that over the morph.

I'd say it was definitely worth it, since he's yet to go off feed or show any other telltale signs of stress and that was exactly what I was hoping for from him.
