Solid advice for sure. I've already been handling him daily without food refusal, but I'll hold off more until that 3rd meal goes down. He switched right from live to f/t with no issues either. He only moved about 20 minutes from his breeder to my home, so there was no shipping process or anything. We are getting snakes shipped to us who are older, and I definitely will give them more time to settle in before handling them as that's a much bigger stress.
