when feeding fuzzies do you only feed ones a week such as every tuesday?
I have just put my snake on fuzzies and he goes CRAZY!! he constricts then like mad and jus destroys them lol befor i can even drop them in the tank he is snappin at them :)lol
I was just wondering can i feeed more then one fuzzie at one time if i dont see a big bumb i feed him another one but if ui see a big bump i just leave one what do you guys think?

one more point i have a extra live hopper /fuzzie and have him in his own little tank with water and a cracker you think it will be ok to feed him to my snake

If it is 1 and 1/2 the size of the snakes bigges part then go a head. If not then don't

I think with fuzzies, you can feed one every 5 days. If there isn't much of a bump, you might want to go a little bigger. And you might want to feed that extra feeder more than just a cracker, LOL.

Technically, I don't think fuzzies are fully weaned. If I remember correctly, a fully weaned baby mouse would be a hopper.

Also, I don't think it makes a difference what you're feeding proportion-wise, once a week is a good feeding schedule for anything younger than an adult.

I'd wait a couple of days before handling, at least till you see some defecation.
