Hi,
Basically handling him for short periods now and again until he realises you aren't going to eat him.![]()
It is important to remember not to handle him for at least a couple of days after eating and to stop the handling sessions if he stops feeding.
Ball pythons generally settle down to handling fairly quickly ( 3-6 weeks usually) but each snake is different so just let his behaviour be your guide.
