| Assuming she was hatchling when you got her it would make her coming up for a year? I would have her on fuzzies if the pinkies are not leaving a bump and she is not filling out. What weight is she? |

| i have a female who is almost a year, she's almost 2 ft long, bought her 2 months ago from a reptile shop and she's quite thin, when i bought her she was only on 1 pinky a week, so i increased this to 2 pinky's every 5 days, she's now on 2 fuzzies and a pinky every 5/6 days and the plan is to move her onto double fuzzies in the coming weeks till she puts some weight on enough to move up another size. |

Corn snakes aren't fat so its a good thing she isn't getting fatter but at around a year old 2 pinkies does sound like the wrong food size although not necessarily, these little guys all grow at different rates. I saw a huge growth spurt with Spot when he went to fuzzies.
I wouldn't faff around with mixing pinkies and fuzzies, just feed a mouse that is 1.5 times the thickness of your snake at its thickest point every 7 days and move up sizes as required. |

| She does not look thin to me. They all vary greatly when it comes to length and weight for example; I have two 11 month olds, one weighs 175g and is just over 2ft long. I have another the same age that weights 140g but is over 2 and 1/2 ft long. Then I have two that are 9 months old so not that much younger than the first two but one weighs 45g and the other weighs 25g and looks about the same size as yours. I am trying to get my smallest on to fuzzies because as lotabob said they really start putting weight on then. I would try with a small fuzzy and see how it goes. Beautiful little snake by the way :) Can I just say that I am surpised that you are concerned, with such a list of reptiles. |

| She looks about the same size as lilly, she weighed in at 31g when i first gave her a fuzzie (a small one though) and that was 3 July, by her 3rd fuzzy feed on 14th (i feed her every 5 days) she was 38g, i admit she did have a pinky or 2 with the fuzzy, but she was only putting on 1g a week with pinky's, so her weight is really starting to go up, she's just gone into blue, but she seems to be getting a little bigger - only time will tell. |

I know how you feel. My smallest is still having pinkies 3 at a time combined weight of 8g!! But he still doesn't want to take fuzzies. I think I am going to have to be strong and not give into his fads and let him miss a week if he refuses the fuzzy. Its so hard though. It makes me feel guilty because I know if I offer him pinkies instead he would eat them. Good luck. |
