I just fed my new corn snake (3 Years old tho) for the first time. I used a feeding tray inside the viv, but think she was unsure of the tray as she dragged it out and ate it whilst hovering in mid air. now she is fully examining the feeding tray.lol think i need bigger mice coz i couldnt see a lump in her belly after eating only in her neck. Got some better photos so will put them on when i find my memory stick thingy for laptop.

Glad the first feed went well It's sometimes best to start off with a slightly smaller mouse for the first feed anyway, so I wouldn't worry about that too much

Glad that she ate for you You can give her a bigger mouse at a future feed, one smaller one won't do any harm, like Hissyfit says it can be better to start off with a smaller one anyway
