feeding

Let it settle n for a week with no handling, then feed, then wait 48 hours, then handle for short periods.
 
I don't think so. Make sure you put in some leafy vines for cover. That's what babies really like.
 
Today one of them started to shed anything special I need to do? And does it shedding change the time line for feeding?
 
Check the shed to make sure the tail tip and eye caps came off.

I don't feed my snakes while they are blue (in shed.) It greatly increases the chances of regurgitation. It's hard to tell, sometimes, though. I can tell by inactivity and larger than normal weight gain. After the snake sheds, feed as usual.
 
Shedding does not alter the timeline for feeding a newly acquired snake and there isn't really anything to do for them while they shed except to leave them alone. You can add a humid hide to the enclosure though, some snakes like that.
