:I have to baby corns, a creamcicle and a regular corn. Well, the creamcicle downs his 3 pinkies fast, he swallows them in the blink of an eye. But the regular corn eats so incredibly slow, and often eats the pinkies tail first, making it slower. Is this normal????


Different snakes have different eating habits. Yes, it is normal.
As long as it is eating I wouldn't worry.
My youngest snow eats every week but only after being placed in a deli cup, with a fuzzy, for around 15 to 20 minutes.
My Creamsicle and Okeetee will eat while I'm holding them.
The rest of my snakes are somewhere in between.
