I was actually letting him crawl through a paper towel tube into his tank since his feeding cage is too big to tip into the regular cage. Will move him from now on.

:There's a huge difference between simply picking up the animal to move her from one cage to another and handling her as in holding and petting. Once she's completely ingested her meal, she can be safely moved. If you're really anxious about it, just open the feeding cage, and tip it up so that it slopes gently into her home, and let her move out of it by herself.

::how long should i leave my corn (almost 2 feet now) in the feeding tank before moving her back to the regular tank? i know that they are sensitive after they eat.. just wondering.. thanks!
