Every 5 days is usually a good rate but the size of the food should be based on the judgement that it is aboput 1½ times the thickness of the snake at its fattest point. Not many hatchling corns older than 4 months need to still be on pinkies. Most move onto fuzzies by 3 months or so.

Just see the truth
It depends........
How old is the snake ??
Better yet, What is the size of the snake at it widest point (what the girth?).
A general rule is that you feed a corn snake an food item that is no greater than 1 1/2 times the snakes girth. And when feeding the snake a pinky does it leave a noticeable lump in the snake after eatting??? How long have you been feeding it pinkys??? So more information is needed to give you a answer.

It's Jager time!
If you move it up to anymore than every 5 days, when will you ever get to handle her! 
Personally i like every 6 days, but now they are on small mice, its every week but when i put them to bigger food i give them an extra day or so before i feed them eg every 8 or 10 days then back to the normal weekly intervals.
