Hi Everyone and what a fantastic forum. New to Corn Snakes as we have only had our little fella for a week and a half and what a lovely lad he is. The reptile shop where we bought him from told us he was fed every Wednesday so not knowing any better about letting them settle in for a week or so, we fed him after only having him 4 days............All went well as he ate his mousey with no problem then he was left alone for a couple of days. (mousey stayed down and came out of the other end wey hey This is Charlie
