Also, it shouldn't be necessary to cut the pinky for it to swallow well. Just be sure not to handle the snake for about 2 days (48 hours) and make sure it has a warm basking spot. This will help make it avoid regurgitation

I got a corn snake of my own he a bit bigger than that one is it true the snake can be killed if the mouse fights back enough?
|
yes any snake can die if a mouse fights back hard enough. I have always fed my corn froze thawed....... and I have always fed my Ball Python live just to me if its not a "constrictor" I give it froze.....but thats just me.
|
Although the snake will likely not get hurt by the mice, it's always a good precaution to feed prekilled to avoid injury and infection. With pinkies however, it's not an issue.
|
that snake is so small!
|
hey is that what u keep ur snake in to live or just for feeding?
|
Just for feeding. they say your supposed to take them out of their normal cage for feeding.
|
hey my cousins corn snake is like that size. and he was wandering if your snake kept that mouse down even since you cut it. cuz his snake just throws up the pinkies.
|
not like the can lol
|
at least it constricts. Young corn snakes usually dont constrict pinkies, since pinkies dont give uo much of a fight.
