Ive got a baby corn about 5months old and shes being fed pinkies and im not sure if im feeding her food too big. Shes on frozen pinks as ive just sed (i always repeat myself) and obviosly defrost them and its about double her width. Also sometimes when shes swallong her food she ingests a little aspen with it. Does this harm her?

Can you also post a pick of the pinks you are using? They sound more like fluffs to me at that size Question

You could always change the substrate for kitchen towel aswell, this will stop any being swallowed.

If you are concerned about the aspen being eaten by your snake, use a separate feed box with some newsprint in it. I feed all of my snakes out of their habitats. I have different size feed boxes depending on the snake.
