Active Python after eating

Hi all

My handsome lill coastal python becomes very active after eating - however I have read that if you handle a snake after feeding they can throw up. Is it best to just let him slither around in the cage or can I take him out for cuddles?

General rule is leave them alone for a couple of days after a feed, if junior wants to go for a stroll then thats his call. Sliding around his enclosure at his own pace and effort is less arduous then being picked up and handled after a feed.

i wouldn't handle him for at least 24hrs after a feed and that way you wont upset him.
