in 2 weeks im going to petco to buy my first baby corn snake :)

how often should i feed him?

what can i give my snake as a treat?

what is a morph?

when i get him ill post pictures :)
 
Most hatchlings should be fed every 5 days. They don't need treats like cats or dogs. Thawed frozen pinkie mice are the food of choice of corn snakes. Larger corn snakes can eat appropriately sized small rats, hamsters, gerbils, ASFs, chicks, quail, and so on. But mostly people just feed them mice. The mice are available at Petco but they are expensive there. Otherwise you can buy in bulk on-line. Morph is the term for all the different colors & patterns & combinations that corn snakes come in.
 
ok thanks

the reason i wanted to know about treats because i wanted to be able ot give him something special to eat that he wont normally get. when i pick him up from the store i will pot pictures of him :) thanks for the help

The Munson Plan (Sample Feeding Chart): Revised 06/08/08
________________________________________
-When they're on single pinks (2-3g), I feed every 5-6 days. (Snake = 4-15g)
-Double pinks (3g x 2) every 5-6 days. (Snake = 16-23g)
-Small fuzzies (5-7g) every 6-7 days. (Snake = 24-30g)
-Regular fuzzies (7-9g) every 6-7 days (Snake = 30-50g)
-Hoppers (9-12g) every 6-7 days (Snake = 51-90g)
-Weaned (14-20g) every 7 days (Snake = 91-170g)
-Adult (20-30g) every 7-x days (Snake = 170+) See below.

Note: Adult females are fed more frequently than adult males (especially following brumation). Adult females are fed every 7-12 days; adult males are fed every 11-14 days.

This is by no means scientific, and not all corns will cooperate 100% with the schedule. The weight ranges I gave for the prey and snakes are approximate.

I think that's only if the females are used for breeding. I keep my non-breeding females on the same feeding schedule as my males.
