How much should I feed my snake(s)?

I have a corn roughly 24-27 Inches long whom I feed 3 pinkies to once a week.

My other snake is a California Kingsnake whom is about 16-20 inches long that I feed 2 pinkies to once a week.

Is this too little food for them ? They both always seem so hungry when I feed them ^_^ Neither of them have ever regurgitated the pinkies/ignored the food. If I'm feeding them too little, let me know what I should start feeding them.

Thanks
 
Do a search for the Munson Plan...its a feeding schedule based on the weight of the snake.
 
I have a question about this as well. Are snakes like humans where they will eat till they are full and then stop? Or are they like dogs that will keep eating till they explode even if it's not good for them?
 
They are opportunistic feeders...so they will eat until all the food is gone. Take a look at the feeding schedule listed in my previous post. Its the best I have seen and many of your forum members would agree.
 
Or a kitchen scale that weighs in grams, which can be found in the kitchen department of most larger stores :)
