Then you can handle the ball python after it's had a couple of days to digest the meal. But if the snake doesn't eat the first meal you offer, it could mean one of two things. Either the snake is fasting, which ball pythons will sometimes do in the winter.s such, it will tolerate handling better over time. A healthy, well-adjusted adult ball python can be handled a couple times a week if necessary. Just remember the post-feeding protocol. After the snake eats a meal, you should leave it alone for a couple of days so it can digest.
