Hey i have just weigh'ed Cornflake she ways 52.7 grams

This is the weight guide someone posted, cant remember who it was but thankyou.

When they're on single pinks (2-3g), I feed every 5-6 days. (Snake = 4-15g)
-Double pinks (3g x 2) every 5-6 days. (Snake = 16-23g)
-Small fuzzies (5-7g) every 6-7 days. (Snake = 24-30g)
-Regular fuzzies (7-9g) every 6-7 days (Snake = 30-50g)
-Hoppers (9-12g) every 6-7 days (Snake = 51-90g)
-Weaned (14-20g) every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)
-Adult (20-30g) every 7-x days (Snake = 170+)


Now i have been feeding her double fuzzies only her second feed on this, should i continue to do this, or should i try her on hoppers.I know two smaller meals is better than one large meal but the Fuzzies are now as thick as her thickest part of her body. They put a bulge in her neck when she's eating them but when there going down her body it doesnt really leave a lump in her belly.

Any info greatly appreciated.

i'd continue on 2 per feed for a short while to get her used to meals that size, or until you use up your current supply, then move up to small 'small mice'
