| Yeah probably a bit unsure still but its a good thing as the alternative is the 'bar of soap' snake, impossible to keep hold of, just keep to regular but not too long holding sessions and he'll soon be winding round your fingers disappearing up sleeves and trying to climb up your nostrils in no time. |

It could also mean that he's been handled a lot by the breeder and is happy to be held! Just be prepared for him to explore and suddenly 'take off' at a moments notice!! Hold him over the bed or a soft landing spot, in case you drop him.  |

| when i have hold of him, i always have a shirt on, or any top with a pocket, so when he gets out of control, i usually put him in my pocket, which in turn acts like a hide and calms him down straight away and sometimes he even sticks his head out of the pocket and just rests his head on the opening and stays put, its actually quite cute to see tbh |
