Hi,

I have just acquired my first corn snake. I have a confession I handled her after only 24 hrs however she was absolutely fine with it and seemed quite happy. Now I have read the advice to leave well alone for a week I will do so. Have I done any harm ? We bought Annie on Monday she has been fed weekly on Tuesdays. The lady in the shop said to feed her on Saturday would this be about right ? Annie is a year old I am told and she is on fuzzies.
