if you are already chain feeding 2 fuzzies why not make the jump to hoppers? if it can eat 2 fuzzies, it can eat a hopper.

and i thought when it came to feeding snakes you were supposed to feed them food no bigger than their widest part i didnt know we could also go by lengths.

also some snake species can eat bigger meals than others can even if both snakes are the same size so i dont think you can compare a corn snake and a JCP

From the look of the picture (although always hard to tell for sure in a picture) she looks the same size or even a bit bigger than my 2 Ball Pythons, both of which are on hoppers, with no problems.

My male is about the same thickness, female, yes, she is thicker. They could very well be the just the same length as your JCP, its hard to tell. I should add my 2 BP's are not full grown.

lots of folks feed small and get very slow growth, in the wild they take as large a prey item as they can swallow which can be 2 times their girth or better
