#2258400 Corny74 View Profile	Message To: Lani123   In reference to Message Id: 2258318  Crazy eater! I have noticed some of our snakes are really active to like they are hungry. We usually feed our adult corn snake 1 xl lg mouse its the size of a rat so we feed every 2 weeks. We had another snake that would not eat so we fed him again less than a week later and he is still crawling around like he is looking for food. Then we have a sand boa who has been eating like crazy she usually stays buried but the past week she has been out almost everyday. We live in Mi but its unusually warm here. Maybe they sense that. My corn is a boy and the sand boa is a girl I thought they had different eating habits.

#2258456 Cphill58 View Profile	Message To: Lani123   In reference to Message Id: 2258440  Crazy eater! Why are you treating the mice for parasites? I saw that on the other forum , who said you have pinworm or anything else? I am not sure about the snake eating the mouse...I know I have treated snakes for mites with the same products. Sprayed on the snake externally. But internally ...never tried that as they say it is toxic to inject and advised against. The amounts you are using sound small....it’s up to you. But I might just wait until treatment is over and a few weeks have passed.

#2258470 Cphill58 View Profile	Message To: Lani123   In reference to Message Id: 2258466  Crazy eater! So are you using it as a 1 time treatment? or multiple days? Directly on the fur? or in the drinking water?
