Since getting him and after the settling in period of 7-days, most days for about 10 or 15 minutes except after a feed, then he's left alone for 48-hours (following recommendations from this forum)!

Every night, for about 15mins. Apart from the night after feeds and just before shedding.

I handle my corns every week for about 5 to 10mins and my boa's get handled every 1 - 2 weeks for 15mins , due to my job and working 12 to 14 hours a day 6 days a week i don't have the chance but i like to watch them anyways and they are all tame.

On average Izzy is out for about 15-20 mins 3 or 4 times a week. Although now and then she gets lazy and I might only see her for 2 days of the week.

i prefer to just watch them, if i wanted a cuddle I'd get a kitteh :D

In fairness I think eeji can be forgiven. With that long a list of corns...
Mine gets Basically the same as herriotfan every day for around 5-10mins except the 48hours feeding time.

all mine get held for around 30 seconds every few weeks when they're moved to another tub for a full clean out

Tiko comes out every other day for about 10/15mins having said that he has been out the last 3 days as I wanted to see him! On sunday he was in his faun whilst i fitted some lights to his viv, so he was cool when i picked him back up, he was so still and i was able to get the closest to a snake cuddle i am ever going to get. Call me sad but it was a really special moment! :)

I handle mine every day for about 20+ minutes... not sure if thats too long but once i've got him i dont want to put him down! Obviously i dont handle him 48 hours after eating or when he's moody before a shed.

Tash :)

Rocky gets handled fairly often as he is living with me, but the others are in my mums so they only tend to get handled by me 1-2 times a week. Although i know that my mum sometimes handles them aswell.
Sta~ple Posted - 23/11/2010 : 20:18:54
Venom every 2 days for about 10 mins.
Char... well I hardly ever see her so about once a week of 2 weeks for 5/10 mins
Ember every 2/3 days for 5 mins
Rattles every 2/3 days depending on his mood for 5 mins.

Don't have much time. I expect they will be getting zero handling accept getting out to clean and feed in the next few months.

Mine come out everyday except for the 48 hours after a feed. Sometimes more than once a day. It just depends on how I feel. Sometimes they are out with me for quite a while and other times not so long. I tend to go on how warm they feel.
