Feeding double pinks

This may be a silly question, but how do you go about feeding double pinks? Do you just put two pinks right next to each other? Do you wait until they finish one? My corn is at 20 g. now and I see it’s time to move to double pinkies.

I would give one at a time. Let him finish the first one and then present the second one.

I feed all my corns with small tongs. I wait until the first mouse has passed down into their stomach and then offer the second, if feeding a second. Usually by the time they can take 2 pinkies they can eat a peach fuzzy though.

I've never fed my snake more than one mouse at any feeding. At the point of feeding double portions, I went up a size. He's now almost 3 years old and doing fine.

Usually when someone is feeding double it's just to use up what is on hand before moving up to the next size. Those of us with multiple snakes of all sizes don't really have to feed doubles.
