I always handle younger balls less because they might not feed. However it depends on the individual snake. Also, they are more docile after putting on some weight.

If your snakes keep eating then it doesn't really matter how much you handle them. Maybe try leaving him/her alone for a few days before feeding if there's a problem with eating.
