I always try to handle Corno in the evening as I think that is when she is most likely to be active if she were in the wild, but would it be OK to disturb her now (9.30am)? I didn't get to hold her last night as it conicided with kids late bedtimes, and then we were so tired we had an early night lol! I just wonder if it's mean to disturb her during the day or if it doesn't really make much difference?

*Wanting snakey playtime*

Umm... 'cos she's not awake lol! That's why I said would it be mean to disturb her.

It's OK, I'll be a responsible adult and leave her alone *sigh*

I'll get them out whenever I fancy it really xD Usually once a day unless digesting, and if they're in blue they'll come out for a quick stretch so I can check on them. The time I get them out isn't a factor, if I waited until they were out to hold, I'd never get to hold 5/7 xD

Usually when I have free time, which is generally late evening. I leave them alone after feeds and will bathe them when in blue and then wait until they shed before handling again.
