    The thing with pinkies is that they don't have much nutritional value to your snake, even if you were to feed 4 at each meal. Better to move them up to fuzzies as soon as you can because fuzzies are better nutrition wise.

    I would get the 2019 MBK and not feed him pinkies at all. I would feed 1 fuzzy at each meal.
    Agree 100%

    Pinkies are primarily water since they're not developed yet. Unfortunately, unless you buy a few more hatchling/juvenile colubrids the vast majority (if not all) of those pinkies are going to be wasted.
