Whether one year old or 5 years old I've yet to see a calm pueblan lol! Each snake is different, that's how I always look at it, I always give my snakes chances to be held, some don't mind it and some hate it more than anything...
I have 2 adult female annulata that are extremely jumpy and fiesty, those never get held, they don't like being touched and I don't think they'll change. Then I have a handful of other annulata that don't mind being held for any amount of time.

As a general rule with milk snakes I don't even try to hold them while they're young because I just assume they're not gonna like it. Feed them all the time, raise them up like they're your kids and maybe they'll be nice to you lol.

This is as close as I get to young milk snakes.....
