Corn snakes are more tollerant of handling. If you handle a royal too often, chances are it will go off its food.

They are much more shy and easily stressed than Corns.

heya and welcome
i agree that corns are definitely more handleable and slightly easier to keep as you don't have to worry too much about humidity. if you get a royal undoubtably you'll join the 'arrggh, my royal's not feeding' club at some point wheareas corns are more like dustbins

Then get a Royal. Just be aware that Royals aren't as easy as corns, so you might have to put a bit more effort into keeping him happy. Great snakes though
