    Thanks for replying.

    You are completely right, I was saying "at least 48hours".

    Now I will of course wait until he ate three consecutive meat. That way it will be safer for his future.

    Appreciate all the tips love this forum so far

    BPs can be very finicky eaters and get stressed easily. You have 25+ years to handle your snake. Let it acclimate. Your snakes health should be prioritized over your desire to handle an animal that doesn't want to be handled in the first place.
