Hello Everyone,

Yep time for a stupid question, i think its time for my corn to move up in food, but following advice from the FaceBook page it was suggested feeding two pinkies for a few weeks.

Now if i do this is there any certain way to do it? am not sure so best to ask.

Thanks

Mine has two pinkies, and i asked the same question when i got her from our reptile shop When the first pinkie is about halfway down and snakey starts to move again in her tub, i give her the second
Oh and its not a silly question, anyone who asks for advice before doing something they're not sure of, is a great snake owner in my book!

I just offered one and when snatched from the tongs placed the other in the feeding rub and left them to it.
