I bought a baby corn in september 2006. i was feeding him a pinky once a week. Now hes a bit bigger i've been feeding him a fuzzy once a week, I was wondering when i should be feeding less frequent....
 
I have to give Dean Kudos on this information that he passed along to me. I think others do it different but I found this to be a pretty good gauge.


-When they're on single pinks (2-3g), I feed every 4-5 days. (Snake = 4-15g)
-Double pinks (3g x 2) every 4-5 days. (Snake = 16-23g)
-Small fuzzies (5-7g) every 5-6 days. (Snake = 24-30g)
-Regular fuzzies (7-9g) every 5-6 days (Snake = 30-50g)
-Hoppers (9-12g) every 5-6 days (Snake = 51-90g)
-Weaned (14-20g) every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)
-Adult (24-30g) every 7-x days (Snake = 170g+)
 
This reminds me that I want to weigh some mice to get a ballpark idea of what they weigh.

My snakes are eating:

Inez, 16 grams, one pink/five days (I feel like she's nearly ready to go to two)
Choco, 30 grams, two fuzzies/five days
