    Yes, give him the first one and then wait for him to swollow it, and then put the next one on the other side of the tank and wait for him to eat

    You never want to stick more than one in at a time, it could lead to a few problems.

    I... fourth? that. Wait until the mouse is totally swallowed and the snake has readjusted his jaw, then drop in the next mouse.

    Usually they will return to strike position and start flicking his/her tongue like mad, trying to sniff out more food! They also stop moving their body with those swallowing food waves, and often start looking around while flicking their tongue.
