My mama snakes are all like that after they lay! I usually move them back up to 7 day feedings after a couple weeks, when they lose that skinny look. Then back to 10 days as they close in on their pre-mating weight. Remember, you don't want to bring her back to her pre-lay weight. I don't really think there's much you can do to encourage or discourage a second clutch. She will lay the second clutch right about the time the first clutch hatches, if she does.
