I posted a pic of a fluff and some pinkies in another post. You can see a size comparison then and see if your snake can manage it?
They can usually take anything as long as its not more then 1.5x the thickest part of their body. |

| If after your snake has fed there is no bump give it 2 pinks, keep giving 2 pinks until you can not see any bumps after feeding, this is when your snake is most likely to be ready for a fluff |

I feed my corns according to the Munson Plan.
snake weighs 4 to 15g...1 pinkie, 2/3g every 5/6 days.
snake weighs16 to 23g...2 pinkies 3g...every 5/6 days.
snake weighs 24 to 30g small fuzzies...5/7g every 6/7 days.
snake weighs 30-50g regular fuzzies...7/9g every 6/7 days.
snake weighs 51g-90g hoppers...9/12g every 6/7 day.
snake weighs 91-170g weaners...14-20g every 7 days.
snake weighs 170g+ adult mice...20/30g every 7/14 days.
This works very well for me & the snakes.
