I've noticed that a few people say when they are taming a snake, they handle "twice a day" or more. I know that corns are more active during the evening so does this mean twice at night or is it okay to pull them out in the morning and again at night?
 
Hatchling or adult corn?

I personally recommend limiting handling of all hatchlings until they are 6-8 months. IMO, 2x/day is way too much for a young corn and is likely to be a source of unnecessary stress for the hatchling.
 
Yes with hatchlings its not good to pick them up too much. My hatchlings are biters, iv named one striker. The other two snap only when I have my hand in the aquarium. Iv been handling them everyday but I have to stop due to them not shedding yet I think they might be to stressed right now. I have four hatchlings and only one does not attack me, the other three do. Until they get older they will grow out of this but not to hold a hatchling untill they are 6-8 months sounds good.
