How long after feeding can I handle my snake?
He's a yearling and his first feed with me was on Sunday.
Since then I have just left him alone except for changing his water and checked he kept it down.
He has just started coming out of his favourite hide today.

Recommended time is 48 hours.
I personally wait until I see/smell poo because then I know I'm safe and wont get poo'd on as well.

Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better.

I don't normally see my snakes move for at least a couple of days after feeding, so tend to just leave them in peace until I know they've been out and about.
