" I think now the fire ants get to them before the kingsnakes get to feast"

Yeah bro, Those fire ants are a MOJOR problem with egg clutches down in Florida. I was JUST talking to my friend about that very same thing just today!

I can just picture in my mind all the reptile clutches at hatching time, and those freakin ants getting a wiff of the yolk from the egg while it is pipping. They would be eating the hatchlings LIVE in no time flat. Same with gator eggs, turtles, snakes, and anything else that moves.

Very sad thing indeed.
