The pinky looks extremely small, and those barely have nutrient content. I think you can and should bump up to peach fuzzies (3-4 gr each) util he is in his 50-ish gr.

Oh, I forgot: 6 pinkies is no way normal. Usually double and on some rare cases triple pinky is fed, but 6 is too much. S/he won't stop eating even if it's too much for him/her. And that amount is telling you s/he needs a size bump up.

I just started mine on a 4 to 5 gram fuzzy per feeding at 28 grams a week ago. It's a very normal weight to bump up to small fuzzies at.

She should be eating small fuzzies. One at a time.

You can always use the head size rule. As long as the feed is no wider than the width of your snakes head you're good.
