Where is a good cheap place to get frozen pinkies?

breed them yourself, or a local pet store. Corns grow so fast that if you order them from somewhere, by the time you get done with the bag, you will be feeding 3 or 4 pinks at a time. My opinion only.

how many snakes do you plan on feeding and how many pinkies a week?

I guess i'll just be feeding one pinky a week, that's about how big around the biggest part of the snake is.

Just my opinion, but I feed large enough to leave a noticible lump.
How many snakes will you be feeding?

A $1.20! I should be selling my pinkies! I have close to 400 in the freezer (and 20 corn eggs incubating). Where are you at in NJ? I'm in Camden County, If your close and don't need large quantities, I could help you out. A $1.20! Unbelievable!

Corns can (and in my opinion should) eat prey much larger than their thickest part. My baby corns got pinkies for the first few meals only - then it was straight up to fuzzies. Prey should leave a SIGNIFICANT lump in their belly - believe me, they will digest it in no time. If your corn is more than a couple of months old, bring it up to fuzzies.
