Help quick please :]

The good: I finally got my BP to eat!
The bad: He would only eat live in a separate container from his usual tank (4 opaque walls, I think he liked that better). I know it's generally not good to handle BPs right after they eat but how/when do I move him back to his tank?
Also - much thanks to everyone here who has responded to my distressed my-snake-won't-eat posts :]

I would let him set for 10 minutes or so after he is done, then try to gently move him back. Congrats on him eating!

Thanks!

I just put him back in his tank and he's being unusually active. Could that be a sign of something wrong?

He may still be hungry or in hunt mode...

He is probably still in feed mode. I wouldn't worry.

Still hungry.

Did you try feeding him live in his tank?

Have you considered making his tank more like the "feeding container" with opaque walls?
