Skipping a couple days in feeding?

I have an albino corn snake that's about 13-14 inches long. I last fed her Tuesday and it's no Thursday. I was planning on feeding her today because I'm gonna be heading out of town Friday, Saturday, and part of Sunday. Should I just wait til I get back on Sunday? The people at the store said she was fed Tuesday but I don't know if they're 100% sure, because another person told me Wednesday.

If it was Tuesday the 7th she should be fine until Sunday....

I normally feed my snakes once a week... your snake will be fine.

Snakes that small I have on a 5 day schedule. My opinion is two days is too soon.

Don't worry too much about missing feedings. They can handle it! That isn't all that uncommon because when my snakes are in the blue, I don't feed them until 24 hours after they shed. Some of them take around ten days to shed.
So missing a few days or a week even, isn't bad.

I have my little one on a slow feeding schedule. She'll be OK until you get back. :)

What do you mean by that? did you feed them ever week or less?

I feed every 7-10 days or so for the little guys.
