Hi everyone, another new snake owner

Hi, I'm Helio, and I just got my baby corn one week ago.
She is 3 months old and, although being a baby, she is calm and friendly when I handle her.
She is 30cm long and weighs only 8 grams, I'm feeding her 1 pinky every 4 days as I am worried she is underweight for her age, at least this is what I think based on my research and many posts in this forum.
If possible, I would like advice on this feeding schedule.
Also, can anyone tell me which morph she is?

Thank you all for the valuable information provided here.

Hi, welcome to the forum. She's cute! It sounds like she was likely maintenance fed by the breeder or pet store, but she should have good growth on your current feeding schedule. Every 4 days is a bit much - I usually don't feed earlier than every 5 days for babies.

As for morph, she's a normal, but she might be able to pass as an okeetee phase since her borders are pretty thick. In a few sheds, her color should really brighten up and you'll be able to see those borders a bit better.
 
I have to agree with everything hypnoctopus already mentioned. I think she is going to be a very pretty little snake
