Hi apologies if this has been posted before but I have had my 3 month old corn for a week now and this morning thought I might have a go at handling him. First off I put my hand in his tank but away from him and he seemed absolutely fine with this. I left my hand there for a couple of minutes and then carefully tried to pick him up at which point he slithered away pretty quickly. So my question is how do I attempt to pick him up without scaring the hell out of him? Should i Ieave my hand in his tank and see if he slithers onto my hand? I want to do the best thing for him and don't want to make him a nervous wreck but at the same time I obviously want to get him used to being handled. Any help/advice would be really appreciated.
hello. when it comes to hatchlings the only was is to just scoop them up unfortunatly an dont hessitate jsut get in there an do it, as they get older an more used to u they tend to stop runng away
Advice on handling my new corn please
