So last night I put a little pinkie in the viv because there was nooo way I was going to be able to get her out without dropping a huge stone on her head by mistake. This morning it was gone! So happy she's had it. The assholes at the shop didn't even know the last time my 3 week old corny had been fed. So this could've been her first ever feed. Who knows! Baby corns need feeding every 5 days right? x

Personally, I feed them once a week so I can keep them on par with my adults (it's just easier for me to manage) and the youngsters seem to thrive :). Once every 5 days seems to be the norm though.

That's good news :)
I feed young snakes every 5 days, then when they start taking 2 pinkies I do that every 6 days... then once they move on to fuzzies they start their weekly feeding regime :) Hope that helps.

That's great news I feed Titan, my hatchling every 5 days. Sometimes it can depend on the snake though, some hatchlings might not take food every 5 days.
