i got my first corn last saturday, she is a hatchling and my guess is about a month old. she fed yesterday around 1pm and i was wondering if it will be ok to handle her today after only 24 hours. ive seen people say you should leave 48 hours but is that necessary? cheers  |

Have you not read the umpteen posts on handling after feeding?
Snakes can regurge even after 48 hours, just because the bump is gone, doesn't mean the sludge is, I can promise you, 48 hour regurge is beyond nasty, but is highly unlikely. |

Thats a good idea with the webcam. I've found some cheap Pan Tilt Zoom IR cameras from Hong Kong on ebay that I may get! That way I can look around the viv when I'm at work or by the TV! |

i know, i can enjoy looking at my snake through the webcam is set up next to my tank, so i can be in a different room watching Tv and occasionally see if my snakey is out so i can look at her through the camera |

i was hoping it would be ok to handle because after about 6 hours i think after she fed she was out slithering around her tank, i saw her on my webcam ive got hooked up so i can see her from outside my room. so i tohught she would be ok to handle but i suppose not  |

That could be possible. my karma sleeps for two days when she feeds. so id advice to leave snake for the 48 Hours. Try not to stress her, i know its hard lol but id advice to leave her |

yeah 48hours is necessary, she needs time to digest the mouse. imagine running round a field after having xmas dinner, thats what she would feel like lol |
