How much and how often are you feeding your corn snake Erik? 80g in a month is a pretty nice gain.

How much and how often are you feeding your corn snake Erik? 80g in a month is a pretty nice gain. I was super surprised myself. I have been feeding one adult mouse every Thursday. They hardly leave a lump in her belly. I look through the adult mice I have and find one of the smaller ones for her because the smaller/thinner adults seem to be better sized for her. Also.. She isn't just getting fat! She's staying lean because she's all over the place when I handle her! She really does get a decent amount of exercise + she's always all over her cage, looking at me, seeing what I'm doing, and exploring (maybe even looking for more food!).
