Question, need an answer

Well I am supposed to take my two corns on tv tomorrow but I forgot and have already fed them. What is the absolute minimum time that you can handle them without them regurging? If I really can't take them Monday morning without hurting them please let me know and I will cancel. Thanks.

You can handle them anytime after feeding. If they are not prone to regurgitation there shouldn't be a problem.
You just need to handle them very gently and do not let anyone else handle them. If you feel they are getting stressed put them back.
Just be careful and pay attention.

I agree with Draybar (for what that's worth). I usually leave mine alone for 2 days after feeding, so your's should be ok by Monday, I'd think. Like Draybar says, though, just be careful with them.
