Jasper ate his first fluff today...he took a few mins to get it in but it went down nicely in the end. As it was bigger prey he actually attempeted to constrict it, which he never did with pinkies. Amazing how they know to do this without being taught. I took a few photos after he had finished eating, as I know we all like piccys, so here they are:

The pics are really good Mancunian. Like you said it's strange how they know how to constrict without being taught, Angelina constricted for the first time when she had a fluff aswell. |

Mine did the same on his first fluff, and I managed to get pics of him constricting into the first photo comp. He does it every now and again but the first time was awesome! |

ju ju my corn is around 8-9months and is on fluffs. From other advice ive read i think you should feed your corn nothing bigger than the widest part of their body. Also i moved Angelina up to fluffs when there was no bulge after feeding on pinkies. Hope that all makes sense to you and helps |

Jasper is about 7 months old, maybe 8. The fluff was a tad wider than him, about the size of 1 1/2 pinkies. |

Yeh I think the rough guide is no more than 1 and a 1/2 times the widest part of ur snakes body. If theres no bulge inside ur corn after feeding then it may be best to move up a stage. |
