    Re: Handling New Balls Guidelines

    Dakski and Bogertophis checked all the boxes. The only thing I would add is to be patient. I know how hard it is to keep your hands off a new animal, but I promise you they'll do better if you give them time to get use to their new home. I see way too many newer keepers having feeding trouble, and when we start asking questions they'll say they've been handling every day since arrival.

    Also, Dakski isn't exaggerating about quarantine. You didn't mention, or I may have missed it, if these are your first snakes (I assume not). If they're from different breeders, quarantine them in different rooms. If they come from the same breeder they can go together, in different enclosures of course, but if they come from different facilities make sure you keep them separate. Separate from each other, but definitely separate from your existing collection if you have one.
