I think my snake has a burn.

Alright then. Why is it so bad? What are the signs of stress? Have you interacted with my snake? Listen I know I still have a lot to learn, but there has been nothing to suggest that she is doing poorly because of handling. So if there is something I should know about stress, and identifying stress TELL ME, please. Telling me it's wrong does nothing for me. I need evidence, and reasoning. If it is bad for her of course I'll stop, but there isn't any reason to currently. Well outside of possible burns, but after that not really anything unless you change my mind.

Okay, while we of course don’t have any evidence that your snake is stressed we also don’t have any evidence of the contrary.

Yes you say that your snake isn’t stressed, but as I said before many newer owners just simply don’t know how to recognize it. All we have to go off of is that the vast majority of snakes that are held for that period of time are stressed out by it. Are there exceptions, of course there are exceptions to everything but as I said we are going off of all other similar cases where the snake was indeed stressed.

Stress can cause a snake to not eat and can even lower its immune system so stress could very much be the cause of a sick snake.
