Hi folks,

Got my new Cali home today, my first king snake. He hasn't been fed for over 10 days as pet shop thought he was in shed.

As soon as I put him in the viv he did a pooh. Is this unusual so long after a feed? Could it be stress from travelling?

Thank

Okay thanks alot mate. He has been out and about this morning and seems fine.

What is it advised to feed kings after mice?

Can you feed rats or chicks as a staple diet?

He is twice the size of my corn who is on jumbo mice so think they will be too small for him.

Thanks

Haha. Okay mate thanks.

Any advice on feeding rats? I was once told not to feed them to corns as too fatty? Is it the same for kings?
