.
i am a first time corn snake owner and my snake has just died not even after a month.
i dont know what i did wrong i did so much research before getting him he was 6 months old when i got him and i was told feed him 1 pinkie every tuesday. his first feed was fine he ate it right away. i didnt handle him after feeding him i waited 4 days. when i would handle him it wasn’t long sessions. his second feed didn’t go as smoothly he ate it but he regurgitated it as i found the mouse in one of his hides. i tried feeding him once everyday after that but he would refuse. if hr refused when i tried to feed him using the tongs i would leave the mouse in with him for 24hrs but hr wouldn’t take it. i thought he was shedding but i realised he had a lump, it made no sense to me because i didnt manage to feed him enough because of his refusal.
it all makes no sense to me i’m in so much shock i am so afraid to ever own a snake again incase this happens. if someone could tell me where i went wrong or anything like that i would really appreciate it
