First Time Feeding baby Corns

Ok so I have had my baby corns for I week today, and it will be my first time feeding them. I kept the little containers they came in, the breeder said it's better to feed them in their until they are bigger and won't get confused.

Anyway I'm excited to feed them. They already eat pinky's.

If you have any suggestions please reply.

What did they eat before they ate pinkies? From your other threads I gather you have handled them a lot. My advice don't handle them (except to put them back in viv) for 48 hours after feeding. susang

I do handle them alot, but never fed them. I'm used to feeding BP's cause my BP eats small rats now, I've never fed babies before though.

The breeder had them before last wednesday, and kept them till they ate pinkies. He said something about feeding them just the tails when they were youger, but I really don't know?

And I usually don't touch my ball for about 28hrs aftering feeding, but she is used to being handled and likes being out of the cage.

Can i leave them in the little containers or should I definetely put them back in the vivs? cause they are to small to eat in the viv.

I usually leave them in the feeding container for about 10-15 mins after they eat, then put them back in their vivs. I have a crazy girl now that I put the whole feeding container in her viv and let her crawl out, because she does not like to be handled after feeding. :shrugs:

I was thinking of doing that also, maybe it wont disturb them as much?
