    My new Mexican Black King

    Here she is my little black speeding worm, I attempted to feed her tonight and she gobbled down three mouse pinkies and wanted more, question: do I feed her until she stops or do I limit her her a certain number.

    Aww she's so cute. I remember when mine was that small.

    Re: My new Mexican Black King

    i prefer to feed one food item when they are small like that. otherwise... once they have one regurge... it's a hassle from then on (speaking from current experience here)...

    so one pink, or fuzzy a week. by the looks of the photo... i would go up to a fuzzy next feed.
    in light, Aleesha

    Re: My new Mexican Black King

    On the regurge note , of the three I feed her the other night she gave me back one last night. Should I wait a week until next feeding or feed at the next normal feeding day?

    Re: My new Mexican Black King

    If I ever have a snake regurge, I skip a week then offer a small prey item.
