I feed my corn 2 pinks last week and he still seemed hungry so this week I bought 3 after he ate the 2 pinks this week he still seemed hungry so I gave him the 3rd one. Is this to much or do I just have a pig for a snake. Snake is about 18" long.:confused:

if he's eating 3 pinks, perhaps it is time to move him up in size of prey? Try offerring him a fuzzy if its not too large for him.

Definately consider moving him up to fuzzies after he has taken a couple meals of 2-3 pinks. Growing corns can eat big meals and grow quickly when moved from pinkies to larger prey,

you mentioned that the snake is 18 inches long....well that's about a foot and half.....

I would definitely move the food item up.

At least a fuzzy or even a hopper sized prey would be better. Cause a foot and a half is pretty big and eating pinkies isn't enough for him/her to grow~~
