handling baby corns?

how often is it good to handle your baby corn (4 months) to retain their tameness, but not stress them?
i know obviously not to handle after feeds/in shed etc.
thanks

My baby has recently just stopped rattling and striking at me. I still don't handle that much, holding off till it gets a little older before handling.
It darts too fast off of my hands and I don't want it to fall and get injured.

Some people handle their baby snakes a few times a week and report it doesn't stress them.

It depends to a certain extent on the snake's personality. If yours is calm, and some are, handle as you wish. You already said you're giving the baby a rest period after feeding, wiht sheds, etc.

If you have a nervous baby, you can either not handle it at all until it's bigger and less flightly, or you can handle it gently to help it get used to being a pet.

When you handle a nervous baby, be calm and confident when you pick it up. Expect it to try to shoot out of your hands, and make sure that it won't fall on anything that may hurt it if its escape attempt succeeds. Be sure your hands don't smell like a predator (cat, dog, parrot, etc.) and that the room is generally quiet. Keep the snake out until it calms down. Return it to its viv gently, and try the same thing again in two or three days.

Don't worry, corn snakes are noted for their good dispositions. Even spastic, twitchy babies usually become calm, gentle creatures as they grow. Enjoy yours!

I have one really flighty one and one really calm one. The flighty one was a rescue that wasn't taken care of properly and I expect it to calm down.

Ya, i ussally handle my snake every 2-3 days for about 10 mins and he seems to be ok.

I'm with Natfoth on this one...usually for about 10-15 min every other day...unless its right after a feed, then I wait a full 48hrs. During a shed cycle I won't handle more than required.
It will surprise you how quick a flighty little baby can become quite tame.
It will also surprise you how that same tame baby can become flighty/timid if dropped.
But as others have mentioned, MAKE SURE you are not holding him while standing up unless you are holding him over a large surface, like a table. You DO NOT want to be standing up with it and him wiggle out and fall that far to the ground.
