Voldemort's new viv is up and running, he was fed tonight, so we left him in his little exo terra to digest his food. We plan to move him Wed evening when he can be handled again. Just wondered if he should be left to settle for a few days in his new viv, or can he be handled daily as usual?

Looks like I've done it the right way by fluke. I was too worried he would be upset having to 'hole up' in a new viv for a few days, so decided to feed a couple of days early before he moves house.I removed his mat stat yesterday and put it on the new viv, and put the spare onto the current tank...never slept all night worrying if the temps were ok as he'd just eaten

i do the same mamma. Although i do plan it around feeding. So 48 hours after feeding i move them, then feed on their usual day as they would of been in there new viv 5/6 days.

I did think that might be the case (was hoping not though). Well, looks like he'll have a week to settle in then

When I do housing swaps I treat as if it were a new snake. So I leave it to settle for 7 days. No idea what everyone else does... this is just the way I personally do it xx
