leave her a week for feeding and handling. for feeding a week but then once you have fed youlle have to wait 2 days before handling again. try and leave as long as you can for handling. minimum a week.

I wouldn't handle at all until she is feeding regularly.

I would want a minimum of 2 feeds in to ensure they're settled in before handling. Hard work, but worth it in the long run.
