My dads Anery ate 2 pinkies instead of one, is it still safe to handle after 48 hours or do you have to wait a bit longer?

I shall let him know to leave it an extra day :)

I would give it an extra day at least, I made the mistake just last week of handling Spot 48 hours after eating a big meal and he regurged the rest of the meal he was digesting. Was devastated my actions caused it so be on the cautious side because I now have 10 days of no handling and the two weeks of added worry; will he eat, will he regurge again, and then several weeks of increasing gradually the size of prey, starting almost back at pinkie size. Trust me handling him a day early is not worth it.

Yeah, well last week he had 1 up from pinkie, but they didn't have any in the reptile shop so offered 2 pinkies up instead and he took the first one before he even left my dads hand, then struck at the second one.
Quite proud he struck actually :D.
Mine is yet to strike feed, he's just lazy lol.

If you can still see a bump after 2 days I wouldn't handle.

Out of curiosity how did it manage to eat 2 instead of 1, do you mean it was offered and took 2.
