Best time to handle?

Hey,
I was just wondering, when would be the best time to handle my corn, during the day whilst its resting in hide or at night whilst its roaming about? I know it'll probably be at night, but by the time it comes out most the time im asleep.
Does this affect it?
Thanks...

Most corns "wake up" around dusk. Though they generally don't come out of their hides until much later. I feed and handle mine around 7-9pm usually. I'd rather not disturb them during the day if at all possible, I know I wouldn't like being yanked up out of bed sound asleep! LOL
 
Just had him out for about 45 mins, gently slid him out of his toilet roll hide onto my hand, where he remained curled up for about 5 mins before exploring. He's grat i want another 1!! Was just abit cautious at first as he'd been lose in my house for 3 months (escaped under me floor boards) glad he turned up!! Just wondering can i handle (should) him more than once a day? thanks...

I'm basically like JT, anytime after 7pm is the norm for me.
However, I will take them out on the weekends in the sfternoon a lot, doesn't really seem to phase them much. With the young ones if you keep the handling sessions to about 20-30 minutes. They'll be fine. :cheers:
