I think the no handling for weeks or so many meals is a sinister plot to torture newbies. I never held off more than a day or two for any of my snakes (because I didn't know any better) None ever showed any ill effects.

Guess it may depend somewhat on the species ... Many Royals / Balls seem to need to feel completely settled before eating ( some don't ) and many like King snakes or Retics would happily eat hanging upside down in a snow storm ..

Some Royals are never great eaters and odd ones would eat every three days ...
