handling new corn snake
i got my first snake a few weeks ago, around 4-5 weeks ago, and i'm still struggling to handle him. i know its usually fine to start the process after around 2 weeks but as this is my first snake im still nervous. ive held snakes before but they were all adults. the most progress we've gotten is him slithering across my hand, but he was startled when i raised my hand. he hasn't shown any signs of aggression but he does still seem a little skittish around me. during the times he seems calm and isn't running away im worried if he bites me i might flinch and harm him. any advice on how to feel comfortable holding a new young snake?
tl;dr, new snake not sure how to handle
