Hi

I have a 7 month old corn who weighs 8g. Is this underweight? I have had her 2 weeks and she has fed and poop great both times. She was being fed every 6/7 days and I have continued to do this. Should I change the feeding days to less? is she ok?

its because its usually next day before 12 and in insulated boxes so its still frozen on delivery. i think northampton is £10 delivery. so for what it would cost u in fuel would proberly not be worth online cheapness

but postage is quiet high on frozen stuff, buying frozen online is only really worth ya while if ya ordering in big bulk buys due to delivery costs. eg a&n frozen foods who alot of the breeders an owners with lots of snakes use. charge £20 delivery

well as i only have a few snakes i just use a few local reptile shops depending on where im working, they are fine of for a few months, i usually buy a few months worth at a time which half fills a small draw
