Hi, my corn snake is approximately four months old, I have been feeding him one pinky every 5 days. He is eating them so quickly now and they arent leaving any lump in his body. i dont think he is ready to take a larger sized mouse, but maybe i could start giving him 2 pinkies every feed. Is this wise? All opinions welcome. Cheers, Jonny

Thanks for all the replies people. i stuck him in his feeding box with 2 pinkies and they were gone in minutes. Hes a hungry snake!! will have to have a look at the pet store to see if they have a suitable bigger feed for him. Thanks everyone.

Giving him two will be fine. You could also ask your supplier if they have any large pinkies he could try or small fluffs/fuzzies (or whatever your supplier calls the next size up)
If he takes two without any problems then you could go up a size once you've used up his pinkie suppy.
