question on handling after feeding
Hey everyone, so my ball python ate a small mouse yesterday at about noon. It is about 9 the next day now and my question is how long should I wait before handling it again? I really want to handle him because I love holding him but I dont want him to stress out to much or regurgitate anything.

Most recommend 48 hours. I would wait at least 24 or until the food bump is gone.

Yup
I usually wait at least 2 whole days (starting the sunup after I feed him) before I handle my snake, just to make sure.
