hiya. i have got a around 40 week old 16 inch corn snake monty. im not sure how much he weighs though. i am currently feeding him 1 pinkie every week and the last fortnight he was staying at my dads as i was on holiday and my dad has now informed me ( after knowing nothing about snakes!) that monty is hungry and im not feeding him enough.so i was confused should i be feeding him 2 pinkies a week ( on the same days or different days if so?) or moving him up to fuzzies??

if i should feed him 2 pinkies a week, if i feed him on the same day would i need to wait 2 days longer for the second mouse to digest??

any help is appreciated!!

does he have a bump you can see after eating the pinkie? If its not very visable then you will need to up the feed. 2 pinkies on the same day is fine... and its just the usual 48 hrs to digest xx
