Instructions
Purchase an adult feeder mouse at a pet store.
Pick up the feeder mouse by the tail and lower it into the corn snake's cage. Make sure you are far enough away from the snake as you do this to prevent the snake from striking out at you as you put the mouse inside.
Close the door of the cage as the snake preys on the mouse.
Watch as the snake grabs the mouse and wraps its body around it to constrict it. It will wait for the breathing to stop and the heart to stop beating, and will then put the head of the mouse into its mouth and swallow it whole.
Feed your corn snake 1 to 2 mice at a time every 10 days or so.
How to Feed a Mouse to a Corn Snake
A corn snake typically makes a good pet snake because they rarely bite and are generally passive. It is a constrictor snake, which means it wraps its body around its prey to suffocate it before eating. In the wild, you can find them in corn fields where they prey on rodents. The following will show you how to feed your corn snake the mice they love.
