There have a few posts this year about hatchling cal kings being difficult to get feeding.

While I don't doubt it - I'd just like to report that from my very late clutch, 3 are out of the egg and 2 are pipping.

The three that are out of the egg have not shed yet - but all three of them are in the process of consuming live day old pinkies.

I don't know what causes some clutches to be poor feeders - but this one isn't. I almost wonder if there are some localities that tend not to feed as well on pinkies out of the egg.
