I would highly recommend that you buy, and then read several times, Kathy Love's book on corn snakes. Most, if not all, of your questions will be answered there. Just follow the link: CornUtopia

I agree with both posts. I do not remember who it was but someone tried feeding a clutch from like 3 days out of egg on and another after the first shed on and had better feed response from those who were fed later. I would wait at least until they have their first shed.

I think when to feed hatchlings was in the feeding section of Kathy's book, not at the end of the breeding section. I have been reading the breeding section frequently to make sure I have everything ready for our hatchlings their at week 5 and 6 in the incubator

You don't have to hunt far as I provided a link to Kathy's website, directly to the page that she has her books listed for sale, in my first post. You can order directly from her. You won't be disappointed!
