I purchased a week old hatchling corn in september. She's doing very well. She takes 2 pinkies about every week. And has been shedding once a month. The skin comes off in one piece. Shes doing very well considering I'm a beginner. However I'm curious as to when I should move her up to 3 pinkies a week. Shes a little over 3 months now and is about a foot and 9 inches long. Should I start giving her 3 pinkies now? If not, how do I know when to start giving her more food?

Also, I'd love any suggestions I could get on tank cleaning. How often should I clean? I've been scooping dropings as soon as I see them, and giving it an all around cleaning about every 2-3 weeks. Is it safe to use warm water with a tad of white vinegar? Thats what I used to use for my hampsters tank. Any corn snake beginner suggestions are greatly appreciated!
