Rant away! I do agree though, that a lot of corns are overfed, especially compared to their wild counterparts (although of course we try to give them a better life than what they would get in the wild). I've seen some people powerfeed females so much that they are up to breeding size at a year old. It was not my intention to imply that I'm trying to fatten up this current undersized snake; in fact, his feeding frequency will now have to be reduced since I think he's looking a little flabby. But hopefully he'll still be able to grow in length!

When you were breeding, did you supplement your females? I thought I remembered reading somewhere that it can be dangerous to give a breeding female calcium?
