Talking New Corn Snake Molly! :D (pic)

Hey guys so I got a Amel/Motley Q-tip yesterday! She (Im assuming havent got it sexed) is 6 months old! And I am very excited!

I was just wondering if that is actually what she is though..
Either way if any one is interested I can keep updates going with lots of pics and keeping track on her size!

She ate within the first 5 mins I got home and am very happy, the people I got her from have all her logs too which is nice, sheds, eating, pooping etc!

Anyway here is Molly!

Congratulations on your new corn. As for feeding there is the Munson plan which will give you a pretty good idea of when and what to feed.

Looks motley but i am no expert on morphs.

I fed my corns once a week with a prey item about double their girth for the first year and then switched to a rolling 14/21 day schedule.

Oh okay yeah I fed here one pinky on Friday and I honestly think she would have ate like 2 fuzzies haha! I might try the Munson Plan for a bit and see what happens. Got to find a scale though do you know where you can pick up a decently priced one?

I have a digital gram/oz scale i got from the kitchen section at sears. t only goes up to alb, but i have been very hapy with it so far. I toss my guys in a pillowcase and weigh them about once/month, before feeding day.
