    Just feed him in his enclosure and you can eliminate that step.

    Those people were misinformed. I ALWAYS feed all mine in their enclosures and i've done so for awhile with ZERO ill effects. Trust me, it'll be easier on you.

    And easier on the snake.

    Mike is right.
    When your snake is up and ready to feed, its not the best time to be moving them around. I feed all my snakes inside their cage or tub.
