Hey; you may not like to hear this, but most all colubrids are pretty skittish, and wild tempered when they are hatchlings to sometimes yearlings. I doubt forced handlings would help very much, and may stress the snake out. When the snake is larger, about a yearling or older, it should be very tollerable. Just like hondurans: flail wildly, musk, and bite; but when they are older they are very calm and tollerable to handling. From my experiances,time is all that will really help(though I handle my snakes only when necessary).
