Re: How big should a 17 month old yellow rat snake be?
if you get her feeding regularly, up the size accordingly, etc, she will get bigger quite fast at that age...no need to worry about them "needing" handled to keep them docile...and if you want to handle her, put your hand in daily and let her get used to you...eventually she will crawl into your hand...all mine do...I have bad issues with my hands as well...chronic severe tendonitis, arthritis, etc...I have days I can barely wash my own hair...but I still manage...they will not get aggressive from not handling, as long as they acclimate to your presence they are fine...
