What to feed corn snakes?
Feeder Rodents:
- Frozen/Thawed Mice: This is the most popular and convenient option. Choose appropriately-sized mice for your corn snake's age and size.
- Live Mice: Some corn snakes prefer live prey, but this can be riskier as live prey can potentially harm the snake.
- Rats: Older, larger corn snakes may require rats as they offer more sustenance.
Other Food Sources:
- Quail Eggs: Occasionally offering a鹌鹑蛋 can provide variety and extra protein.
- Feeder Fish: Small feeder fish, like minnows, can be an occasional treat.
- Prey in the Wild: If your corn snake is wild-caught, it may have a preference for certain prey it encountered in the wild, like lizards or frogs.
Feeding Schedule:
- Young Corn Snakes: Feed every 5-7 days.
- Adults: Feed every 7-10 days or when they show signs of hunger.
Tips:
- Offer food in a separate enclosure to avoid substrate ingestion and reduce stress.
- Ensure the rodent's size is no bigger than the thickest part of your snake's body.
- Always supervise feeding, especially if using live prey.
- If your snake refuses food for a while, don't panic. Some snakes go through periods of fasting, especially during shedding or colder months.
