Hi there, This is my corn snake kefka, I've had him for roughly over a year now.
I bought him in a petshop in england on july last year whilst I was living there at the time but he's moved back up with me in scotland. :)
Small question, Im unsure on how long I should wait for feeding Kefka his food, the information I was told by the shopowner when I was buying him to basicly feed him pinkies and then the next stage up which was slightly bigger but both I was told to feed him every 2 weeks, then onto fuzzies Im totally unsure, I thought I'd look to find out but I never found the information of the appropriate amount of waiting time needed to feed him so I had left it at every 3 weeks. So im just a little worried since I dont want to be over feeding him and such.
Thanks! |
I love my ikkle kefka<3 |

Welcome.
I feed mine evert 7 days. Generally you can feed them every 7-10 days. 5-7 days if younger.
The size of prey you should be feeding should be 1.5x the thickest part of the snake.
What weight and length is your currently? Looks like it would take fuzzies. |

My mistake I dont mean fuzzies I mean the smalls, the ones after fuzzies lol.
