I've just been reading posts on people upping feeds to fuzzies, I tried my corn on 2 pinkys a few weeks back and she regurged 1. This may sound like a silly request but could someone post a pick of their snake next to a fuzzy to give me an idea of how the sizes are,I understand this could be difficult if it's not at feeding time!! I'm a bit nervous to try cos of the regurge and some idea of size would be great!
it usually goes that the food can be 1.5 times the width of the head but i just judge by the bump. gave casta 2 pinkies tuesday night(one normal one small) to see how she'd go. if the pinkies still leaving a sizable lump then leave off for a bit. i wouldn't feed casta a fuzzie till shes happily taking 2 pinkies for a while. try a couple of smaller pinks if you can get them next time and see what happens. the bulge after swallowing usually decides it. hope that helps and if i'm wrong someone please tell me
I thought it was1.5 the wdth of the widest part? A pinky leaves a small bump,but she doesn't seem to be growing very fast, she putting on about a gram a week-ish.
This site has pictures of sizes of food :) http://anfrozenfoods.co.uk/#/mice/4532624648 of course, different suppliers have different weights and sizes for their food but with pinkies and fuzzies they are very very close.
Not sure.
