Please help

I just took in a snake that someone was giving away for free, they told me she was probably around a year old but she is skinnier than my pinky. I own several snakes but have never had any that are unhealthy so i'm not really sure what to do to help her gain weight. They told me they feed her 3 pinky mice a week, should i feed her more? And how often? I would really appreciate some help

I'd get a weight on her and feed her according to the Munson Plan feeding chart. Whether you feed double pinks or not depends on her weight. You can feed her every five days. Also, an experiment showed that hatchlings fed pinks with slits through the skin of the back grew faster. I always do that till the snake is on weaned or adult mice.
