Too fat?

I'm not really sure if shes over weight? Shes just over a year old and eats mouse fluffs (sometimes 1, sometimes 2) every 8 or 9 days.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...72cdd8dd3c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...eb1e2368de.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cfbe6139f7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...84f9873c2b.jpg

No, she still looks square. I wouldn't want her any rounder though.

Looks OK to me too, but what on earth is a "mouse fluff"? Never heard that term...?

The snake still looks square to me and you can kinda see some of the muscle definition down the back.


At a year old I would think it should be on a larger size of prey instead of a fuzzy/fluff.

I'm just kinda worried that it will be too big cuz the guy at the store said a small rat is a pretty big jump up

What we call "fuzzy" or some ppl call 'em "crews" since their fur looks a bit like a crew-cut. (eyes still closed, fully nursing)

Next size up (in U.S.) is a "hopper" (aka "popcorn") very bouncy young mice w/ eyes OPEN, and THEN a "small" (fully weaned) mouse, & so on. > > >

Corn snakes can take a while to progress, they often start out very tiny, & it takes a long time before they're big enough to up-size prey. I'd treat yours as an
individual, don't worry about what other snakes are eating, offer the right size food for YOUR snake, & his growth will progress just fine...nothing wrong with "slow-grown". You scared me when you said "small rat"! :rofl:
