    Ball pythons should only be handled a few times a week to minimize stress. You definately shouldn't handle your snake for at least a week after getting him. You should wait 2-3 days after feeding to handle your snake.

    Regards,

    Give him at least a week to settle in before messing with him. Don't handle after feeding. Give him a couple of days to digest the food :gj:
