my 07 lavender eats 3 times a week. recently I had to get rid of a bag of day-old pinks that were too small for my other snakes so I started feeding them to the lavender (who was eating fuzzies). He was eating 6-9 day-olds each time.



As soon as the lump goes down the throat, it's time to offer another. You can probably get your snake to eat 4-5 pinkies in one sitting. Wait 3 days and do it again.



And if your snake gets full and you have a bunch of thawed pinkies, give them time to cool down to room temp and then toss them back in the freezer. You can refreeze them a few times before they go bad.
