Yes I know that many people do so without incident, but you are statistically safer to wait a few days to feed your new acquisition than you are to feed it right away. Use your common sense. Ever heard of a snake regurging a meal fed to it 15 minutes after it arrives at its new home? Ever heard of a snake dying of starvation five days after arriving at a new home? Read Kathy Love's book, a few care sheets and search this forum. The preponderance of opinion is don't feed on the first day the snake arrives.

Excuse me, everyone has their own methods and practices. I know all the books, I have them all, thank you. I was simply stating not always true and that this new snake owner did not serve their snake a death sentance by feeding it right away.
There is no need to flame me or tell me that I lack common sence.
Have a nice day.
