I'm sure somewhere there are guidelines to follow on when to up feeds etc. From a personal slant, I, as you have, noticed that my snakes were more and more active after feeding and assumed this meant they weren't 'satisfied'. This has happened with all 3 corns and every time it did I upped to two pinkies.

If you provide info on size/weight/age here, someone with a little more knowledge with me should be able to give you a more definitive answer :)

if 1 pinkie is leaving a definate clear bump then 1 pinkie is fine. If you dont see the bump in the snake afer the pinkie then its time.
