Your ball python may never do this, but just to be safe, this is a good rule of thumb to follow.
Oh, pft, yeah. I figured that went without saying. I always wait at least 48 hours after every feeding. I only ever take her out when she is active within her own tank.

I guess I should have been more specific. I've learned to read her very well and if she gives me any sign of not wanting to be bothered I always leave her be.

Will do! Thank you!
