I'd tend to go up to double pinkies before moving up to fuzzys.
It gets them a bit more used to larger prey item for a few weeks first then.

If, after your hoggy has eaten a pinky, there is no visible lump in its middle, it's time to move up to a bigger prey size. You can try two pinkies if the fuzzy looks too big for the snake to swallow, or try a fuzzy and see if he eats it.
