I just got a new corn about a week ago..i fed it a pinkie the other day and it ate it fine..i am just wondering how do you know when you can start feeding it more than one pinkie at a time? I also have a little bit bigger corn and i fed him a fuzzie.. i have the same question for him..how do i know if it is ok to feed it more than one at a time? sorry for starting a new thread but i couldnt find this exact topic when i was searching. Thanks

When the pinky or fuzzy is no longer visible (bulging) after the snake swallows it, it is usually safe to add another pinky or fuzzy. Eventually that will happen with 2 and then it's time to move up to the next size.
Hope his helps.

i was looking at some pictures on this site and i saw some snakes eating and it looked like there was a visible bulge and it had another pinkie in its mouth already..is there any danger if i do feed two at a time? Thanks
