Can you have a tame adult beauty snake?

[Foschi Exotic Serpents]

Absolutely! If you start with a baby and handle it enough, it can be just as tame as anything else. I’m sure it would take a lot of work almost daily to get an adult tamed down if it’s not used to being handled, but I’m sure that can be done as well.

These photos are from when I first got Nova for my birthday in May of 2017. She hatched April 28th 2017. You can see she’s been handled regularly since she was 2 weeks old. She is brought to our local expo as well. This helps her get used to other people. Beauty snakes are smart. In my opinion they show the type of intelligence and hyper vigilance that retics show. Yes they are fast and very sensitive to fast movements, but with patience and consistency, they absolutely can be tame and comfortable with you!

At no point was her head being restrained. She calms down a few minutes after being taken out, and will just sit with you and let pet her head.
