Just feed the snake in its cage, then you wont have to worry if its to soon to move it. IMO there really is no point in moving a snake to feed it. In fact it can be seriously dangerous in large snakes like burms and retics. I've fed my snakes in there cages for years and none of them are aggressive....except maybe the amazon but I'd be concerned if he didnt try and bite me...LOL
