That’s a myth. Continue feeding in their enclosures. You’re actually much more likely to receive a bite by moving a snake that is in feeding mode to and from different containers. Also causes undue stress on the animals. Applicable to all snake species.
Small/medium snake owners feed in the enclosure to avoid bites/bandaids.
Giant keepers feed in the enclosure to avoid trips to the ER.
Venomous keepers feed in the enclosure to avoid trips to the morgue.
Using a snake hook to tap train your animals is a good idea and makes dealing with very food driven animals much easier as well.
