Question how soon to feed after extreme heat?

I came home thursday evening to find my bedroom at 110 degrees. I had finally broken down and gotten a portable ac unit for my bedroom. Apparently though there are little screws to hold the tube to the window piece they weren't enough and it came out. Surprisingly the only reptile i lost was a leopard gecko. All of the snakes were alive. My question is should i go ahead and feed them or give them some time to recover?

I have gone to lowes and got longer screws as well as nuts to secure the tube better and have fixed it. So it shouldnt fall out any more.

Leave it a week or so IMO.. So you can monitor your AC and viv temps, and the reps can chill out for a bit... So to speak... LOL

I agree with Mike. Leave them be for a week at least. Make sure they have access to water and make certain the temps stay fairly steady. Offer a meal if things are stable and everything looks good after 7 days.
