    Yes.

    Or, you could just skip a week if you wanted ... he won't even notice.

    Like adam said, its not a big deal.

    My feeding day is on sunday for my ball pythons but sometimes i dont have time so i will either feed them in advance on saturday or one day late on monday. Its no biggie really

    I went away for a week and a couple days and i just fed them before i left. they were fine.

    Yeah, he'll be fine, for sure. As has been said, they can go long periods of time without feed, so missing an extra day or 2 won't even phase them. They're feeders of opportunity, they'll take the food when it comes along, not expect it on any regimented schedule, IMO.
