Congrats, the little guy looks great! Again, smart to let him settle for a few days -- and, preferable, get him feeding.

I would say five to seven days before feeding is a good rule of thumb. After feeding, I'd recommend 48 hours to prevent any chance of a regurg (at LGR, we wait 72 hours).

You are doing great, many new owners do not have your patience.
