my tangerine honduran is 1 1/2 years old, (not sure how long, at least arms length) and still eating fuzzies. sometimes 1, most of the time 2. i did get him to eat 4 one time. i also tried an adult mouse once. he started to eat it then let it go. too big i guess.
i have read that milk snakes skin doesn't stretch as much as say a corn so they can't take in as big a meal. mine hides 24/7 so doesn't burn as much energy as my corns. sometimes mine will eat every 7-10 days, sometimes 14days. the hungryer he gets the more active he is
