What temperature are they kept at? Also, please tell me you're keeping them in seperate vivariums.

Also, you should be feeding snakes that size pinkies, not fuzzies. That's clearly too big a meal for it.

Wow! What in the world possessed you to just "see" if it would eat a meal that large? What's done is done.

Well..keep the temps closer to 85-86 and don't handle it. It's going to take a while to digest that meal. If you stress it out it might regurg it back up, throw up, and that's really hard on a snakes system. Try to feed it appropriate size pinkies from this point on.

Both snakes are albinos, lacking melanin. The white one is a snow and the orange one is an amel.

If it were me, I would not let it get below 80 until its done digesting. Then you can go back to the way you had it before.

I have a snake rack and a snake room. They might get down to around 75 at night some times 73 if it's really cold outside and it's hard to heat the house.

my baby corn (only 7 grams) ate what I decided was a "peach" fuzzy. barely any fuzz. asked for a pinkie that is what they gave me. Wasn't sure how it would go, but Loki got the mouse down no problem. She looked like yours in the picture, but the lump pretty much disappeared in 48 hours. Hope your snake does o.k.

The accepted guide for size of food is no more than 1.5x the girth of the snake. I am praying your little one doesn't regurge.
