Just got a new corn (my 4th)... quick question

It's a jungle corn, about 3 years old. every other corn ive bought as a hatchling. ive been looking at him, for about 3 years now, and finally decided to add him to the collection. he's hardly been handled, so i was told to expect him to be a little jumpy if not snippy. i just brought him home today, its probably best to let him sit for a day or two to get used to the move before i handle him, right?????
 
Treat him as you would any new snake...Keep him away from your other snakes for a while and clean your hands whenever you do handle him and then your other snaked and vise versa...Don't handle him for at least 6 to 7 days..after that you can offer him his first meal which you should keep small..2-3 days after eatting you can can start handling him..but since he hasn't been handled that much make the handling time short so as not to stress him out to much and extend it over periods of time as you see him improve..best of luck to you
