How often to handle ?

Hi all,

I'm new to the site, and new to keeping snakes. I have found the site to be very informative, and i'm sure I'll fit right in.
I recently purchased a small ( 600mm) coastal carpet python ( morelia Spilota), I did a fair bit of research before I got it, and it has settled in well eating weaner rats once a week, I hope they aren't to big , but it won't eat fuzzy's,

I have also purchased 2 adult childrens pythons ( Antaresia childreni ) male and female and an adult stimson's python ( Antaresia stimsoni ) not sure of the sex of it yet.

Anyway I was wondering if too much handling is bad for them or doesn't it matter? I only ask because I'm like a kid with a new toy and am having trouble leaving them alone, apart from today as they all ate last night.

So any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Josh
