Handling after feeding?

[hazzaram]

I have two snakes. When I got them, I left each of them alone for a solid week except to change their water out for fresh. My girl was supposed to be fed the day after I got her but I held off until the next week so I could get them both on the same schedule. Now they both eat on Thursday night and I leave them alone for 48 hours. If they poop, I do move them and quickly replace the paper towel but that's it. I don't want poop sitting in the tub for 48 hours lol

I didn't have to go about it that way. Both my snakes are super chill and my albino boy, he has not one ounce of shyness. He's always exploring and raring to go... But I gave them the week to settle in. I imagine going from one environment to another is pretty stressful for the little things and I wanted them to get used to their home and me without messing with them.

I feed whenever the next scheduled feeding day is for the rest of my collection. I have offered prey the same day as I have gotten some. Either they eat or they don't (and most do.). I leave it up to them. If they eat they are obviously comfortable enough.

I always try to feed the first or second day (unless I know they just ate), just to see where they are at.
