# Snake Size

### Overview

All snakes will start off with a size of 1. You can increase the size of your Snake by paying $SKIN via the "Feed Snake" contract. Don't worry, we'll only feed your snake the finest HAMsters and Guinea pigs (pun intended). The cost of increasing the size of your snake is non-linear. Meaning that increasing the size of a Snake from 1 to 2 will be cheaper than 2 to 3. There will be an interface for feeding on the site: <https://sassysnakes.io>.

### Benefits of a larger Snake?

* [x] Larger snakes yield more [$SKIN](/sassysnakes/utility/usdskin.md) when [Staking Snakes for $SKIN](/sassysnakes/utility/staking-snakes-for-usdskin.md)
* [x] [Mating](/sassysnakes/utility/mating.md) your snakes to produce a golden egg has a size requirement of 5
* [x] Larger snakes have a higher probability of attaining rewards in the [Weekly Golden Egg Hunt](/sassysnakes/utility/weekly-golden-egg-hunt.md)&#x20;
* [x] Your snake's size stays with it forever, so increasing the size increases its value permanently!
