How many mice has your snake eaten (and what size.)?

I am considering purchasing ANTHER corn snake and I am trying to estimate how many mice I will need to purchase. I need to order more mice for Mr. Icky so I want to see the total if I group the purchase together from The Mouse Factory.

I keep records of my current snake eating habits and here is his stats.
He just turned 1 years old And he is 26 inches long and 88 grams. He skipped over the Hopper meals and will be going straight to weans as soon as I order him new food.

He has eaten the following mice.

Small Pinky = 35

large pinky = 14
large pinky x 2 = 4
Total of Large pinky's = 22

Fuzzy = 10
Fuzzy x2 = 3
Total fuzzy = 16

I was thinking a 25 pack of small pinky's, 25 pack of large pinkies, 25 pack of fuzzy would be enough for my new snake? Or does Mr. Icky just have unusual growth patterns compared to the majory of corns?
 
If those are the smallest packs available for those sizes, then I guess they'll have to do. They won't go to waste anyway. As we've discussed before, you can always double-up on the current prey-size before bumping to the next. It's difficult to be 100% economical when buying shipped f/t for only a couple of snakes, but it still usually beats pet stores. :)
 
I guess I don't have to worry about running out of pinkies large or small. The Mouse Company only sells them in sets of 50! :eek1:
