 Feeding

My corn snake is now 21 inches long. It’s head is about the size of a pencil an the largest part of it’s body is about the size of my index finger. It is eating 2 pinkies every 5 days. And is still acting hungry after about 3 days. Should I move up to fuzzies. And when I move up should I feed it 1 or 2. And should I still feed it every 5 days. I got it in May and it has shed twice since I’ve had it.

 Feeding

Feed one Fuzzy, easy. It may even be able to handle a hopper. I suggest just one prey item per feeding. Usually when they are acting hungry, they are fine. Its best not to over feed. Corns get overweight easy, and you just shorten their lifespan.

On occasion to keep mine stimulated (cause they are curious beasts, mine are) Ill put in a toilet paper roll, or some new rock for them to explore. Not moving about their whole enclosure, just one new item...
