pinkie size

Im just wondering what is a normal pinkie size for a 2 month old corn? I'm feeding her the smallest size at the moment but it seems like she is on the hunt for more before five days has passed. Is it okay at this point to bump her up to 2 small pinkies per feeding? She's 11" and I don't have a scale to weigh her on currently, I'm hoping to find a cheap dry scale this week and get it ordered.
 
Without weighing both her and the pinks, it's hard to say for certain.

[You can't trust the "out hunting" behavior, many do that all thier lives -- it's how they are wired as opportunistic hunters]

However, if you're feeding 1-day old pinks (sometimes called reds as well), you could probably get away with 2 of them. It's just a guess, since I don't know her actual size, but at 11" or so, she's probably in the 10-15 grams range and could handle around 3 grams of food of appropriate size. 1-day old pinks usually weigh in at about 1 to 1 1/2 grams...
