Hi,

Please help. My year and half corn doesn't seem to be growing or shedding. She looks healthy. I feed her one fuzzy every week to 10 days.
Should I be feeding her more? more often? and when do I move to adult size mice?
When she feeds, she feeds well . I put the mouse in a tub in her viv.

OOOHHH, another question - she is still in a 10 gallon tank, when do I need to move her out? and to what - a 30 feeder?

Than you, every step is still new for me, even though I have had her since she was a hatchling:) Sonya

she could use a 30 or 40 long now, and i'd up her to hopper mice as well.

she has probably stopped growing/shedding because she's only eating enough to maintain her current size.

if your not sure if she can take hoppers at least try her with 2 fuzzies every 7 days.
she will start shedding and growing again

If you've got a weighing scale that weighs in grams, or can get one (you should be able to find them in the kitchen department, in one of the big stores), then here's a link to a good feeding plan, it should get your baby growing again :)
