42-72 hours minimum
If you handle them too soon, it upsets their system and they will regurgitate. Also if the snake is scared or stressed it will regurgitate so that it can "escape" more easily.

Re: Feeding/handling

I usually wait 48 hours before handling my ball python after feeding, and a week before handling after acquiring her/them.
