Hi everyone.
I am new to the herp world and have had immeasurable and phenomenal advice along the way.
In this, I've heard some conflicts to what I've been taught. I would like to open a discussion to hear what others think.
1. feed live or frozen? [Contrary to what I have learned, I have heard the argument; the only reason you feed frozen is for convenience. Animals however enjoy "a kill" and should be given live (at least once in a while) and “always” if the animal is off its feed.
2: Substrate-- what is the best for Kingsnakes? I have mine on Cyprus mulch but, have heard sand is better for kings.
What are the best substrates?
3. Tank size – what’s appropriate (lets say for a four foot snake)
4. Separate tanks vs. housed together?
5. Hides- how many should they have?
OK that’s all I can think of right now--- I look forward to hearing what you all have to say. Thank you.
