If he's an adolescent and not a neonate, 2 pinks a week seems like a concentration camp diet. If he can take bigger, give bigger. Feed him all he'll take. They quit when they're stuffed. I feed mine every five days or until they defecate, sometimes a little longer betwixt feedings. You do want him to grow, don't you?

I have a Pueblan Milk Snake. When are they considered adolescents and adults etc? I have a 1 1/2 year old, that I THINK was underfed. He weighs 1.5 oz, and is 17.5 inches long. I just bumped him up to 3 pinkys a week, and he's been growing really fast. I've researched everywhere, but, I can't find any information about how old are they when they are considered babies, juveniles, adolescents, adults, etc. Can anyone help me with these questions? If so, thank you!
