feeding amounts

[ConcinusMan]

If this is a very small or young snake, you can't possibly overfeed them. More food is just put into faster growth if they are kept warm enough. You can over stuff them though, and possibly cause them to throw up.

I feed babies (garters under 12-14 inches) daily or nearly daily. Just feed your snake enough to give him a very noticeable bulge then stop. Worms digest fast. Feed again when the bulge is gone. This usually only takes about 24 hours. When feeding just worms, you should feed them very often and a little reptile vitamin supplement dusting on a worm once or twice a month can't hurt. Just don't overdo it. Calcium supplements have vitamin D and it's easy to overdose them on that.
