hi :) ,

my corn is around 266g and just under 4 feet i was just wondering how much i should feed him i just met a girl who told me i could feed 2 adult mice every 3-4 weeks but the 'munson' plan says just one adult every 2 weeks i was just wonderng if other people could give me some imput on how often and what size they are feeding there snakes.
thanks
oh and my snake is around 1 - 2 years old
 
One every seven days, never feed anything larger than one and a half times the width of your snakes girth about you should be fine :) Some follow a more complex schedule/rule of thumb but this has always worked for me.
 
I prefer to feed one mouse at a time every 2-3 weeks (depending on the health and condition of the snake). Sometimes they skip a feed due to a shed or need building up after laying so I double up and feed two mice at a time. However given a choice, I prefer slow and steady, one at a time.
