Moving On To Double Pinkies

Hello all, so I got my snake in on September 13th, she will be 5 months old November 12th. She has been eating very well for me, on pinky mice of course. I’ve be been feeding every 5 days (except for one feeding I miscounted and it was 4 days between feedings) with no problem. She is 19.63 grams currently. I’m wondering if it’s time to start feeding her two pinky mice and moving to 7 days per feeding. She always hides after feeding so I have no idea how long the meal is leaving a bump, by the time it’s safe to handle (24 hours), the bump is completely gone.

Feeding day would be today, but she is about to shed, so I was thinking I would wait until she sheds and try two pinky mice. I also don’t want to rush it and cause a regurgitation.

I’ve attached a photo as a reference.

I usually bump mine to double pinks at 15 grams, so yeah. Definitely can do that. I then start mine on fuzzies at 30 grams

I usually start on 2 pinks at 16-17 grams, so yours is definitely ready!

I would wait until after they shed.
