Feeding Question

kim0511 Mar 03, 2008 03:05 PM

I am pretty sure my son's corn is ready for 2 mice, how do I start the feeding with 2? Would I offer then both on right after the other, or what a few hours or a few days? Thanks for all the help.

you can offer 1 right after the other or you can wait a few daysand ffe twice a week instead of once until he can take a larger mouse.... its really up to the snake.

I just put two in (f/t) and they take em both.
I start feeding two a piece when they are still eating pinkies - and then move up size from there as they grow, always offering two. Usually they eat both.
