First and foremost you need to get him eating. So NO HANDLING AT ALL. Not before, not after, not until he's eating consistently and keeping his meals down. You'll have 20+ years for handling, but only if he starts eating. Focus on getting him eating and once he's eating consistently then start to handle

Okay will do. I’ll make sure I follow these directions to the letter. I will post updates.

*Update*
He ate his last meal but he did lose a lot of weight since I skipped about 2-3 meals . His bones are showing , I will look around his tank again to make sure he did eat the last one and not vomit again . Looking at him makes me nervous, his next feeding day is coming up , should I be concerned about his weight? I know I had to skipped the meals since he vomited back to back but looking at him this way makes me nervous. He does roam around his tank and hide a lot . Does it take long for snakes to gain their weight back?
