FeedersAny and all issues about raising rats, mice, or anything else that you feed your cornsnakes.
Hi everyone, so my corn snake is currently at about 36 grams. The only fuzzies I have access to are usually about 4-5 grams. The munson plan says to feed 1 fuzzie that is 7 - 9 grams every 5 - 6 days. Should I feed two fuzzies? I don't want to underfeed my snake. Or should that be sufficient for a while? I might start doubling once she hits 40 - 45 grams. Thanks so much!
The Munson plan is known to be agressive. You can very safely size up later and still raise a very well fed and healthy snake. My snake weighs 41 grams (currently in shed and just missed her second feeding) and I feed 5 gram fuzzies. I do plan to move her up to 6 gram fuzzies the second feeding after the shed.
I would not feed double fuzzies. The regurge risk is too high. Just feed these and then move your snake up to the next size available.
I agree, the Munson Plan is very, very aggressive. You can safely feed 1 fuzzy (5-8gr) until your snake is 50gr, or even until 70gr if you feed the bigger end.
If there is a PetsMart in your area, they have the "Arctic Mice" Brand, and the boxes labeled "Small Mice" contain 6 mice to a box and they average about 8 or 9 grams a mouse. Although they don't call them "Fuzzies" they are exactly the weight you are trying to find.
