my cousin has corns and he feeds them really big mice. What should he really feed him. His snakes are a year old.

Thanks

Exactly what Fatman said. Mice need to be 1.5 times the diameter of the snake. If the snake is big enough to take the mice, it's probably okay.
 
Agreed. There's no way to answer your question based on the information given. We would have to know the size of the snake compared to the size of the mice being fed to it. But if the snake isn't upchucking them, they're ok.

Chibi had the anwer you need. Just feed the snake mice that are about the same thickness of the snake up to 1.5 times the thickness of the snake. With that, no matter the size of the snake, you can make a good decision on the size of the meal to feed it. Do not feed larger meals because it can fail to digest and rot inside of the snake which can kill it.
