Im only 1 day into my 7 days wait till i can hold and bond with Patrick the Carolina!
How hard was it for everyone else? And do i really need to wait this long!?!?! As when handling in the store he was fine! |

LOL.....love it!!!  |

It's very difficult to get through the long settling period but it will be worth it.
It's the hardest part of the addiction, no matter how many snakes you have!!  |

It's best to give Patrick a full week to settle in. Even though his enclosure hasn't changed, the views and smells have, so it'll still be worrying for him It'll be worth the wait  |

Yea thats true! But i bought him as a setup was already in the viv on show in shop! So his surroundings havent changed. But im still gonna wait just to make sure! |

It is horribly hard but as Moppet said it really is better for Patrick to wait but yep i hated it i just sat in front of their fauns constantly hoping for at least a glimpse! |

The weeks waiting is so very hard. Every single time I got a new snake it was hard to wait 7 days but it is best for the corn snake to get that settling in time imo. Just think about how scary it must be for the snake, moving house, car journey, new smells, new hides, new big scary humans with different smells, different sounds etc etc etc.
It does seem to drag so badly but once the week is over you'll be glad you waited and you'll have a happier, better adjusted snake to show for it |
