Hi all, Tobasco ate a Jumbo mouse last week because his two large mice didnt seem enough any more. I am now aware that a jumbo is very large for a corn. What would you advice me to do now? Shall i feed him a large this week? Or feed him two large mice every week until his hingry? Or shall i gove him a jumbo every month and nothing else?
Thanks all meg x :) |

How long is your snake if you know? 1 large mouse every 10-14 days is often enough for most adults corns. I occasionally give my adults corns jumbos instead of large but it is very rare. Anything more can make them easily stack on weight as adults. |

You have to be careful as 2 large mice on a weekly basis is a bit much and he might become over weight.
He's a good looking snake xx |

Jesus, how big is he? 2 large mice is a big meal.
I would suggest a large every 10-14 days or a jumbo every 14 -20 days
Got any pics of him? Xx |

Did he eat the jumbo mouse, if so then he is probably fine |
