On the paper I got with my corn it says it was born on the 7th July 2012 but the first recorded feed was 16th of November! Is it normal to be that long before a feed! I've fed it fine every 5-6 days since and had no problems, tried a small fuzzy and a pinkie after its shed and he had no problems with it, so does this mean I should move onto fuzzies now

Thanks all

Some snakes don't eat so well to begin with, but that gap is at the longer end of normal imho.

He's growing super fast if he only started eating in November and can manage a fuzzy already! Maybe the seller missed a few feeds off the records?

Some snakes take their first feed after a week of hatching, some can take a month or longer. Either that or it was feed and the records were recorded on something else and weren't filled in.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3
