Well Sid is now 132g so I thought I'd buy 1 medium mouse and try him with it as I noticed last few feeds he's been quite active after a feed.
Just wanted people's opinions on the size I've tried him with
Above is medium mouse
His belly bulge afterwards
And below is a few pics of him settled in the viv after feeding. Which I think are cute!!
Was cute watching him lifting the cave as he tried to squeeze his bulging belly inside
I've fell in love with a royal python at the pet shop!! He was soo alert when I was noseying in his house. Hoping bday present but unlikely lol |

Corn snakes can stay on mice forever, I like to mix it up a bit with other pray. Rats can put excess weight on a snake so bare that in mind. Looks like your snake is doing very well. |

Lol, sneaky buy!!
Being worried is good as it means you care.
Jake is over 300 grams and on large mice, next up is pinkie rabbits, baby quail and small multimammates then once bigger day old chicks |

I'm a little nervous as I don't want to cause him any harm! Plus if anything was to happen to him I wouldn't be able to have another! I bought him while my partner was at work lol |

That medium is fine, I used to be scared of moving up sizes but Jake just eats whatever I give him. He did struggle with the Labrador :)
Very nice snake by the way |

He looks fine on mediums, I'd keep him on those from now on unless you have more smalls to use then I would give him double smalls until they are gone. |
