Thank you for all the great responses!

So she is in her tank with a good hide, low 60s in humidity, good temps, etc... i want her to get used to her environment before i attempt to do any handling. also, i was thinking better to leave her alone for a atleast half a week or so, feed her, then give her another 3 days to digest and then attempt to handle her. what do you guys think?

i handled her for 15 mins or so when i first got hr and she was very tame, it has been a couple days now and i went to go add another thermometer in her tank and she jerked in a feeding response, so i got the hell out of there. i understand i will get bit once or twice but i want to avoid that as much as possible and not handle her when she is "moody". did i do the right thing or should i have picked her up right away no matter how cranky she was?

my boas and burm have NEVER even attempted to bite me so this is all new to me.
thanks again yall!
