Its best to wait at least 2 days to handle them after they have eaten...You wouldn't want it to reguritate its meal.If it is a baby..then i would wait three days to be on the safe side.

The key to finding the right size to feed is to look at the mid-body area of the snake.
Just do not feed bigger than that and you should be fine.
