Unfortunately, as we had already handled him with the previous owner...we did try. He was pretty nervous and not happy, so we haven't tried since. He had his first feed with us yesterday...which went fine, he struck from inside his hide and ate quite happily before slinking back in. So the plan was to leave him until Saturday now before we attempt to handle him again. Would you say that our attempt to handle him too early would have set him back and we should leave him longer...and is two days after a feed long enough to wait before trying to handle him? I realise that this can differ from snake to snake, I am just looking for peoples experience.. Also, went to the pet shop yesterday to get some supplies...and am already eyeing up other potential purchases....lol, one week in and already addicted [:I] Thanks Dave [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
