how much to feed?

I've had my hatchling for 3 weeks and have fed one pinkie each week. She has grown in length but not width. When do I increase # of pinkies or move to fuzzies? Thanks for the help, I'm getting different answers all over , but you guys seem to know what you're doing.

A good rule of thumb is to feed you snake a food item (mouse) than is 1 1/2 time the snakes girth. So when you snakes grows more than that is a good time to move up.
