That depends on how big your corn snake is. The smallest ones will take one pinky, two or possibly three times per week. As they get bigger you can give them two pinkies at a time. When they get a little bigger, you should move them up to one fuzzy at a time. And snakes can always eat a bigger mouse than you'd think at first glance.

my corn is about 7 months and 17"s long. i feed him two pinkies every three days, power feeding. i just moved him up and fed him two fuzzies yesterday. each snake will let you know how much they'll eat. i say start off with one maybe two pinkies every 4 or 5 days. just remember food item should not be more than 1.5 times the diameter of the snake.
