Few Questions! 
Hey everyone! I just purchased my 1st Snake and its a Ball python. I was wondering how old it was..Its about 9-10 inches long (if that). I fed him his 1st small mouse today and i was wondering how long until i can handle him again. Dont wanna piece him off!
Ill have pics posted when im able to handle him again. Alright! Thx everyone!!

Its recommended not to handle a baby ball for approx 1 week so that they can acclimate to their new environment, and then afterwards only briefly and keep an eye on their behavior to see if they are getting distressed. As they get older you can handle them more frequently but still have to be careful not to distress them.
Grats on your ball!
