I picked up this adult corn snake from my friend's boss, the snake is 6 or 7 years old. It was only being fed one mouse every 3 or 4 weeks. It was very emaciated, weighing only 108 grams.
After a 5 weeks in my possession, and with a nice weekly meal of a f/t weanling mouse, I am happy to report that he (just a guess) is now up to 155 grams! Hope he continues to fatten up.
My question is, what is a "good, healthy" weight is for an adult corn? Just so I know what to shoot for.
Here are some pics I took before feeding today. He just shed this weekend and his yellows are POPPING! Is it normal for snows to have so much yellow? does the motley make a difference?
