    Feeding question.

    Ok ... so our new girl just ate, the first try we did with her and she took it right away! YAY

    BUT ..... I asked Nate about when you can handle snakes after feeding and he said after 48 hours we can handle her again. My question is what about touching ... like I always check on all our snakes a few times a day just to make sure they are OK and if they are in their hide I will lightly run my finger across their skin to let them know I'm there. Can I still do that after feeding? Or is there a strictly NO BOTHERING them rule for 48 hours?

    THANKS

    i personally do not think that is an issue, but since she is new i would go with the strict 48 hour rule for a bit till settled in better.

    Re: Quick question!

    OK I was kind of leaning more towards that direction. Thanks for the input
