Not wanting out

Hi guys my corn wud rather play tug of war with me than come out her tank lol she has a new log and without fail always wraps herself round it everytime I try to get her out. She's a good handler and once she put she fine. Does she not like being handled anymore? :(
 
I don't think many corns "like" being handled. I have a few that crawl right out every time, but most (even of my friendliest snakes) would probably prefer to stay where they are! If she handles well and isn't flighty, I would just propose to take her log out. They can't really grasp on to a cave or hide box.
 
Yeah she would prefer to be left in she is quite a private snake I think, but she has a great nature not once even attempted to strike, very gentle, just wish she was like other corns that can't wait to get out. Yeah I might do that cheerz
 
even my sweet boy doesn't come looking for me, unless I don't take him out for a couple of days in a row, that's when if I open his tank, he shoots out looking for me! and will actually crawl up my arm!

but for the most part I can easily say that he could careless as to weather or not he comes out.
which I enjoy :eek:
 
All of my snakes resist whenever I try to take them out. Once out, they're fine to handle and seem to like exploring a little bit.
 
Mine also don't appreciate when I go to grab them, but once they are out, they are very sweet and curious!
 
My adults just sit there and look at my hand as I come scoop them up. I just have to watch out for Abbott, my okeetee girl. She thinks everything is food nowadays.

My babies usually try to run away. My 9 month old hides, but doesn't mind coming out. My yearling, Callia, is always at the top of her viv when I come close, and she crawls right out onto me as soon as I open the lid.
 
Most of mine try to get away if the door opens and there is no food coming. I have two boys that don't even move though and let me scoop them up.
 
I agree with taking it out. I had a small cactus hide in my boy's tank and when I tried to get him out, he'd rattle his tail and strike. I took it out and he's fine now.
