hello.
I have a corn snake which is not quite a yearling yet but he is 28 inches and i am not quite sure whether to move up his food item to a hopper yet or not because im not sure that he is satisfied with 2 fuzzies per week. The fuzzies do not leave a big bump in his stomach at all but i dont want to damage the snake by trying to feed him food to big for him. Plese help!!

At 28 inches I would think it could easily take hoppers.

Is he eating the two fuzzies at the same time? If so, he is plenty ready for hoppers. I'd say, pick the smallest hopper you can find and try him on it.
