pinkies at 14 months i think you should be feeding him bigger food sizes at that age.

He can eat fuzzie mice or pinkie rats easily. (you would be suprised what they can eat.)
At the age (had he been fed properly)he should be able to eat nearly a fully grown mouse. Sounds like he has been way under fed!

bring his feeds back to 6 to7 days and 1 pinky rat is not enough,
The size difference between pinky rats and fuzzies isnt that great and there is no
problems using mice every second feed either, Sound like the snake hasnt been
getting enogh food for quite some time and hence its not growing properly.
As has been said ubove at that age it should be on large mice easily
