" this "fear" of canibalization is sad.

common sense ISNT so common anymore "



Thomas, you really need to put the bong down for a second and listen up.



You really are insulting the facts of science when you say comments such as the ones above. There is no rational thought to what you are saying. Common sense AND actual knowledge of kingsnakes and their care, habits, abilities, and characteristics, when all brought together, brings forth the COMMON SENSE that kings CAN and EAT each other, and other snakes. It's what they do. That is what they, by nature, are programmed for. Hence what? Oh...THEIR NAME, which is KINGSNAKES!!! HAHA!!!!!



When you talk about having a " fear " of snakes cannibalizing on each other, and relating it to not having common sense, you are creating scientific hypocrisy of the utmost extreme. In doing so, breeders who actually either do this for a living, or who are actually accomplished in their craft, and are responsible and have good names in the biz, have another good laugh at forums such as this and disregard it all even more. Because of that fact alone, you should be ashamed for making remarks about animals you claim to like and enjoy, but yet you blurt out statements that, in the act of putting two kings together and play Russian roulette, and then one of them gets eaten, what you are stating is that you don't care about the grim possibilities of such outcomes. That is not caring about the animal, that is you caring about you having this euphoria of " living on the edge! "...plain and simple.



In closing, you are a nice guy in real life, and we can agree simply to disagree. I am not cutting you down personally, but what I am doing is just stating the scientific obvious, that myself and every herper I know and talk to on a regular basis, believe about childish and irresponsible comments made about snakes that are predatory, but not taking into consideration their own well being in the long run.



The facts about this subject are as black and white, as the snake below.
