a lot of pet shops feed their corn hatchlings every 7 days so that its on the same day each week - its easier for them that way - hence why they may look smaller than what they should do but if you get into a regular feeding pattern then they will probably have a growth spurt and put on a bit of weight...

This seems to be the fad over in America to over feed them and grow them up to breeding size asap

thanks mate wasnt to sure how often i could get away with feeding them with out harming them

You need to be careful not to overfeed them, corn snakes are opportunist feeders in the wild so will eat and eat.

A pinkie every 5 days is ok.

feeding one pinkie every 5/6 days is fine for hatchlings..but maybe someone else can suggest something else but thats all i can think of
