Changing enclosures while in blue phase

I just got done setting up a new/bigger enclosure for my corn snake and when I went to get her she was in the blue phase... would you still move her or too stressful?

I would do it. I handle and feed my snakes while they're in shed all the time. But if you want to be be on the safe side, it might be a good idea to wait just to save him the stress. Up to you

I wouldn't worry about stress, I'd worry about whether you have a good humid microclimate in the new cage. If you do then the snake should find it and shed without a problem. Especially if you move the old hides in to the new cage, and place the old humid hide in the new humid location.
