ive witnessed all kinds of snakes consumed by kings. in captivity most kings that gorge on a large meal like a snake bigger than themselves often does result in a regurge due to improper conditions(temps). i caught about a 3ft king once that had about 6to8 inches of a rattlesnake tail hangin out of its mouth out of selfdefense it proceeded to gurge out about a 5ft. rattlesnake whos head and a good portion of neck were already digested and gone leaving me to believe it had actually ate the rattler the day before, i have no doubt if left alone that king would have digested that entire rattler w/o any probs.
