well you can offer two, you can put both in and leave him be, check back and if they are both gone then good.
you can offer one, then when he is done offer the other.
I call what your describing follow feeding or chasing. im sure there are 20 other things you can call it too. I have do this to a female i have who only eats mice and one at a time at that. its really easy. Right when she is about to take that last bif swallow i take the rat and just sorta lay it in her mouth gently and put the rats nose against the mouses butt. whe she swallows the mouse she will then take the rats head into her mouth. i usually hold it until i know she has a good grip and then slowly lower it to the ground. i would do that as a last resort though. if you dont need to then dont bother.
