Tameing Boas???

Hello,

As some of you know I just got my new 3-month-old Boa. Now she's a bit nippy (which I'm use to from my male BP) But I want to use her when she's older in public speeches on snakes at high schools and libraries so if I wanna use her in these things she can't really be nippy.

I know that young snakes will be aggressive because in the wild they are food. Should I just handle her any way, even though she’s frightened? Or should I forget taming her and just love her for her beauty and the joy she brings to my life o> ?

Some one told me that if you get an aggressive boa that you shouldn't stress the boa with handling, that you should just leave it alone. Is this true? I don't own snakes to cuddle with them but it's nice every once and a wail to handle them, right?

Thanks,
Grace.
