    question?
    i fed my bp last friday so 4 days ago and she spent most of time on the cool side in her hide and never comes out. if i wanted to hold her or move her so i can clean her cage would she regurge or is it already digested?

    4 Days should be fine as long as you're gentle. if you're really worried, I'd keep her head above her stomach (yay gravity!) :)

    Yeah, you're fine to handle her. Just be gentle and try not to make her move more than she wants to herself, and you should be fine.

    It's generally safe to handle them 2 days after they've eaten. Moving them to clean cages, etc, can be done one day after, unless they're unusually high strung.

    what does it mean when you say high strung?

    means they're really nervous or jumpy

    Yea you'll be fine. I usually handle Ball Python 2-3 days after feeding and she's fine.

    High-strung= nervous and jumpy, yes--or one that gets so upset with being disturbed that it winds itself up and acts like a little rattlesnake, lol.
