    Corn snake feeding chart

    Hi, I'm new to the forum and I was just thinking if anyone has a corn snake feeding chart for the UK. He is around a year old and weighs about 30-40 grams (may be wrong), pictures coming soon and thank you everyone.

    I know this is for ball pythons and POSSIBLY for corn snakes so weigh your snake exactly and about 1/5 (20%) of your snakes weight is roughly what you should be feeding them, also dont feed anything wider than the width of the snake (the width bit quite possibly wont work for corns cause they have less body on them). Here is a chart that may help deciding what to feed.

    This is the munson plan:

    The Munson Plan (Sample Feeding Chart)
    -Single pinks (2-3g), I feed every 4-5 days. (Snake = 4-15g)
    -Double pinks (3g x 2) every 4-5 days. (Snake = 16-23g)
    -Small fuzzies (5-7g) every 5-6 days. (Snake = 24-30g)
    -Regular fuzzies (7-9g) every 5-6 days (Snake = 30-50g)
    -Hoppers (9-12g) every 5-6 days (Snake = 51-90g)
    -Weaned (14-20g) every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)
    -Adult (24-30g) every 7-x days (Snake = 170+)
    -Jumbo Adults (40-50g) every 7-x days (Snake = 400g+)


    Feeding corn snakes is vastly different than feeding ball pythons.

    I used it as a guideline, I don't really follow it anymore though, I just go by the width of my snake.
