how often do year old tiger snakes eat?

[braddd1992]

gday all i have just got myself about a year old tiger snake, he is a bit under a foot long, been eating skinks TAILS as a main for a few weeks (not sure what else he had in the wild but im guessing skinks was it) ive started feeding him pinkies, he has had a few just wondering how often i should be feeding him pinkies and how many at a time as ive never had a baby before. cheers

They tear through food like a lawn mower...then they crap it out just as fast :lol: Shhhh about the skinks

Disregarding the legalities of if all...... Tigers will pretty much each whenever and whatever you feed them, you could put a couple of Pinky's through it a week until it is ready to be moved up to the next size. Being such pigs they're easily overfed!

cheers for that guys ill keep on feeding him the scented pinkies until he is good to automatically go for them on his own, and as for the legalities of it all, all i have to say is if thats all he/they will eat for a few weeks then thats what they will be eating. thanks
