2 Pinkies

Fistly im sorry if this is the wrong section.

Anyway my snake is due for to ove up to 2 pinkies i was just wondering how do i feed them to my snake. Do i give him 2 at once? or with an break in between feeding?

i'm just not sure so any help will be welcome
 
You will have to find what works for your snake.

Some like both at the same time, other like to wait til they are done with the first before they get the second.

There is no wrong way. Just try one way, if it doesn't work, try something else.
 
best way to try it is to try giving it one and then the second way after it has finished the first one..this is also a safer way as there have been a few cases where snakes will try and eat both at the same time...This is rare but it has happened...I always feed mine one and then the second after they have finished the first and they seem to have no problem with that..I wish you much luck.
 
i have tried diff ways and all of mine will only eat once the first one starts going down if i wait to long usually they wont be interested in the other mouse
 
My little girl on double pinkies eats the first then starts hunting (and she will keep it up as long as she is in the feeding cage) until she sees the next cause she knows its coming I am worried she is going to be angry with me when she goes up to fuzzies and is only getting one haha.
 
My girl is due to be on fuzzies according to the Munson plan, but we haven't even done 2 pinkies yet. I tried to give her 2 pinkies at her last feed, but she just looked at the 2nd one for a second like "oooo yum, there's more?" but then didn't want it.

Is there a trick to getting her interesting in taking the 2nd? She is 9mos old and not quite 32 grams. I have a bunch of pinkies, so I would like to use them up before buying fuzzies. (Sorry to hijack the thread a little)
 
Nevermind! I forgot tonight was feeding night, and I followed the instructions of waiting to give the 2nd pinkie until the 1st pinkie was mid-snake. She took the 2nd pinkie very easily. :dancer: (I can't wait to see how much she has grown after her next molt since she is getting fed a more appropriate amount of food, now.)
