    When I feed 2, I always wait until he has swallowed and somewhat passed the mouse down.

    Feed her one, then after 10 minutes or so give her the second.

    You'll be able to tell when they are ready for the next one, if I'm feeding multiples I wait until they realign their jaw and when they are ready for the next they should start flicking their tongue again. hope this is helpful

    Mine let's me know when she's ready. She gets in that aggressive hover stance.
