Chances are, he'll be so interested in the first hand you'll just be able to pick him up with the free hand... just remember to move slowly so as not to attract his attention. He'll soon get used to it  and good luck... Great plains are lovely snakes.

But yeah, if he does nip you... ignore it. Just don't pull your hand away or you may damage his teeth.

I have heard 48 hours but I have handled after 24 - hoping I haven't done any harm.
They all (2 Spotties and a Surinam) seemed happy enough. My spotties get really active just after feeding as they get in a feeding frenzy and will keep looking for more food. Tara xxx

If you already have a Rat Snake, a baby Royal should be a very hassle free change. Dont stress bout the feeding thing, and you have a great wee snake.
