Most corn snakes do not need to eat multiple adult mice and rats are even fattier than mice, so they're not the best idea for long term feeding.

Hi
Her weight looks roughly the same as when I adopted her.
When she was had her first two visits with the vet; they remarked "good weight & condition" . first weight was at 578 grams
Next was at 372g.
She also laid 31 slugs between the dates (April & June).
So we're wondering how much of April's weight was eggs?
I enclosed a photo of today's weight - had to go get a scale for this.
Doc recommended the 2 mice with Repti-Cal for a few weeks (been 5 actually) to help with after eggs.
All her bloodwork came back normal - we played safe.
I'm e-mailing with today's weight & body photo to get the okay to go back to small rats as food.
