Newb question alert. Hehe. Ok, so I have read that you should feed your snake in a container other than its cage, especially if you have the aspen substrate (which I do), now, is there an amount of time the snake should remain in the other container before moving back? I know you aren't supposed to handle it or stress it out when it's eating or it could possibly regurgitate. Or am I just over-thinking this? Thanks.

Yet another feeding question.

I usually wait until the mouse has stopped moving down the snakes body and then give it a few minutes more, before gently lifting the snake back into it's home. Once they get bigger, I support them in front of the feeding lump and behind it when moving them. This is not what I would class as handling, it's just moving the snake from one place to another, just do it gently and you'll be fine. 
You can also just open the feeding container and place the whole thing in it's tank, if it fits, so that he can make his own way out, if you wish
