Corny, my adopted corn snake

[tttaylorrr]

At the end of the day, it's important to remember that you really don't need to catch up. As long as he's being fed appropriately now, that's the best thing you can do for him. Any damage that's done is done, and it's reasonably likely that there's little to none in the first place because snakes are made for low food conditions. It's what they do best. Just let him grow at his pace. Also, he's very cute.

thank you for the words of encouragement. i do feel like i need to play catch-up, but that's not what's best for him and i would never do that. i just want him to be fat and content (not obese but you know what i mean! lol). i see photos of these big, long, beautiful corn snakes, and i want that for him! but it's going to take time, and i am impatient.

i'm just happy he's with me now; he is amazing. the decision to take him in is one i will NEVER regret.
