Ball Python Snapping at Handler

Okay so I was going to go on vacation in Louisiana and leave my ball python with my sister while I was gone. We set up his enclosure exactly how it is at my house. He has always been a great eater and has great sheds, and I knew moving him to my sisters house would be a little stressful, but I thought that he would bounce back rather quickly. He refused a meal (he has only refused one meal before and that was when he was going into shed) and I guess she went to go replace his water and he snapped at her. It apparently was a very weak strike and he completely missed. I'm just worried that about him being very stressed but I wanted to make sure he is well taken care of. I will be returning on the 11th and he is due to eat again on the 8th. Should she still try to feed him again or wait until I come back again? Should I be worried about him snapping or just not worry about it?

New environment, new smells, new sounds, the move, etc could of stressed him out a little bit. It's just like first taking a bp home and they are a little on edge, may look the same on the inside but it's not the same. Some can just be sensitive with change. I would try feeding again and see what happens. If he doesn't eat you will have him moved back with a little time before his next feeding day. If he does eat then great and you will be back after food is digested. Make sure your sister knows your exact feeding methods.
