Once per week is fine. I know, if you're like me, it feels like you're starving him by not offering food, but the snake's metabolism only runs at about 20% the rate of a human's. Your healthy yearling can easily go several weeks without feeding. Hunger strikes appear to be much more worrying for us people than for the snakes!
