| Most people recommend 48 hours, but sometimes you can see when the lump left by the feed go within 24 hours, but to be safe I personally wait 48 unless I need to handle, hope this helps, scott |
lost track of the day's now, but I'm getting my amel stripe corn on the 2nd of August!!! |

| Same as Scott. I usually give both of mine a couple of days before I even open the viv. |

| 48hrs before I go anywhere near personally - other than checking the temps and that everything is as it should be. |

Everybody i have spoken too says 48 hrs.
I just leave him in his viv and make sure he gets fresh water and that temps are ok.
It is hard to resist but best for the snake. |

I tend to leave mine 2 days, which is why I feed a snake every 2 days in the house, so I always have one to play with, lol.
I do leave them 3 or 4 days every now and again if they had a BIG meal |
ooops, I bought another......... |

same as me then Karl, that's the huge advantage of having a multi-snake household  |
