Hello guys all 4 of my corn snakes are a year old but for some reason today after i got home my local pet store accidentally give me 1 wrong mouse so my question ?

My creamsicle is just over 3 ft weighing 96 Grams just under a year old and the meal he gave me for her is slightly big weighing 22 grams would she be ok feeding on this "i don't want to take risks that could make my snake fat or hurt her"

any advice would be great thanks :D

Please note this is a double post "posted the last one in the wrong place dont know how to delete"
 
This was my PM answer:


Don't feed a 90g snake a 22g mouse. She is _just_ at the size to switch to small weanlings- 14-16 grams.

I'm feeding 22 gram mice to snakes that are in the 200+ range, so more than double the size of your snake.

You can freeze it and keep if for several months and someone will be big enough.

The danger in feeding too large a mouse is regurge, and you absolutely don't want to have her do that.
