Hi Tom, said this in a similar thread;

A little handle from tub to viv is fine, but as long as you don't have a good outing just after he's eating and to leave him 48hrs without any interaction (water change, of course)

I feed in my RUB and Viv.. Plainly as my snakes are very defensive and protective over their mice, and I dont want to stress them to biting me when I'm transfering as they could regurge, not good for anyone...

I do reduce the risk of impaction, I weigh some sheets of newspaper down and I do play a tug of war with the mouse and snake, just so he dosn't pull it off the newspaper.

The rule is no handling for 48 hours after the feed. So depending on when you feed, it may or may not mean the day of the feed.

If you were to feed friday night then you shouldn't handle untill sunday night, but you are still ok to handle during friday day time because that is before the feed.

Does that answer your question, because i wasn't too sure what it was you wanted to know.
