    Take snake out of old cage... put into new cage. Simple as that.

    What matters is that you give him/her enough time to get settled into the new cage before you start handling/feeding again.

    Using the same hides/keeping the same basic set up in the cages will also help.

    x2! There's no easier way to move the snake from a tank to a tub (or whatever) than physically picking up the snake and moving it to the new enclosure. If you keep everything in the same approximate place then they'll adjust to their new settings so long as you leave them alone.
