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  |

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. |

| why would you want to accelerate their growth? just stick to the norm and dont overdo it, for the sake of your snakes. |

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

| 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... |
