I am starting to feed my baby corn every 5 days now instead of every 7 days after been given some good advice, so i feed it tonight and i also upped how much to feed it too 2 pinkys and it actually took both of them really well and it actually looks full now because on 1 pinky there was a small lump but 24 hours later when i looked there was hardly anything there so i hope it will be ok on these 2, if it was'nt ready for 2 would it still have taken the second one or turned it's nose up at it pls let me know thnx.

A snake is an opertunistic feeder which means if it gets the chance for a meal it will take it, but if it couldnt handle that much food it would'nt have eaten it. The snake is fine taking 2 pinkys.

Congrats Shaun, keep it on 2 pinkies for a few weeks now and then it should be ready to move up to a fuzzy.

well done shaun, my two CB07 girls are on 2 fuzzies each per feed, every now and again they'll just take one though so don't get disheartened if yours drops back to one pinky for the odd feed

Glad you've moved up to two, it's such a shock to see how much they can eat when they are so little.
