So, my little Florida king Kage is around 3 months old by this stage, and she's doing great, one complete shed with no issues and never refuses a feed. The last couple of feeds I've moved her up to fuzzies, and she seems a lot more interested in them than the pinks, striking and constricting etc. She does take a good 5-10 mins to get one down, but afterwards she seems to search for another one. I'm feeding her once every 5 days.
Will one do her ok? Or should I try her with a second? There's no way she'd manage a larger mouse. |

| I would be feeding her every 7 days. I think kings in general just keep searching for food after they eat unlike my corns who hide away after eating. I would think 2 fuzzies might be too much for a 3 month old snake as my 6 month old hypo greyband is still on 2 large pinkies a week but I do plan to move onto 1 fuzzy a week very shortly. |

| After my kings first mouse, he always wants more... same with most of my corns as well although they don't act up as much as the king :p I'd keep with one, two are only normally fed for when preparing for the next size up. |
  
A very special super, duper thanks for K :3 |
