Hello, had my little Corn Snake for about 5 months now although he's about 11 months old. I'm feeding him 2 pinkies a week at the moment, but i'm unsure when i should move up to fluffies. Can you guys & gals advise me please?
I'll put some pics up soon :)

Welcome to the forum.
Do the two pinkies leave a bulge?
I have just fed my 4 Month old corn 3 pinkies and they just left a bulge, next will be the larger pinkies then when he takes more than one I will try Fuzzies. |

| Hi and welcome, i would agree. At 11 months he should be on fuzzies unless you have got a very small corn. |

| Hi amd welcome godzuki. Glad you are following the advice given. Would still be a good idea to weigh him - most of us keep a 'snake diary' with regular weigh-ins, dates of feeding, shedding, health problems etc. As you have already seen this is a great forum to join, with experienced owners willing to share their advice and support. Just remember that no question is a silly question on here - just ask and get the answer you need!! xxx |
