Re: Multiple small prey items v's one large item
I feed one(1) appropriate prey item once a week. I wouldn't consider this to be large.
Brian at BHB did an experiment with a clutch of cornsnakes. I cannot remember the size of each group of babies but he had a number of them and fed each group differently.
One was fed one large prey item per week.
One was fed a smaller meal per week.
One was fed a smaller meal per week with some reptile vitamin or something added to them.
The best performing babies were the one large item per week. It's on his snakebytes videos. Someone can look it up.
He did state it's a small sample size but was something for Snakebytes because people were asking.
