We worry more about feeding a variety of prey items than the corns do. Since their preferred prey is a rodent, and rodents properly raised have all the nutrients a corn needs, there is no reason to vary the diet. However, some snake keepers like to vary the diet, and there's nothing wrong with that. But keep in mind, if a snake prefers one prey item, like an African Soft Furred rat, it may refuse to eat mice, or any other prey. What I'm saying is if your corn is eating and growing well there's no reason to change anything. I have not used reptilinks for a long time, as I was trying to get hognose snakes on a hunger strike to eat. I also used them on some lizards and they seemed to like them. If you can purchase reptilinks at a reasonable price you may want to just keep feeding them and forget about rodents.
