Hi - imo it doesn't matter if you make changes as soon as the snake's shed - it will be fine. As long as he's well settled and has had 3 consecutive feeds with you, I think you'd be okay.

If I'm doing anything like this, or just having a big clean, I put the snake in a rub and put a towel over the rub and make sure the snake's warm enough. A heatmat or a place next to a radiator could be a good idea if the job's going to take a few hours. Then the snake is tucked up in privacy while I work on the viv.

Hope the changes go okay - I look forward to pics.
