Hi
I have recently become the proud ownwer of 2 corn snakes 1 x carolina oct 09 (Carrie) and 1 x amel apr 10 (Ruby).

I have been advised on feeding requirements for now, Carrie 1 x fluff & Ruby 2x pinkies, every 6 days.

Obviously requirements will increase as snakes grow so is there a general rule of thumb to help make sure they're fed correctly? Wouldn't want to over/under feed them

your feed for the snake should be no bigger than one and a half times the thickest part of your snakes body i feed mine every 7 days and give them fresh water every day mines seems content with that...hope this helps
