>>2) For your size king. I would feed small adult mice. You know, the young ones. Not weanings!
Please do NOT feed adult mice, even small ones, to a foot long king. It's to big a meal and might well kill a 12-inch long snake.I think Rainer might have misread your post. (Rainer, if that's not the case, I challenge you to change my views by posting a short video or short series of pix showing one of your foot long kings being fed a small adult mouse. With a ruler in one of the pics for size verification.)
But like others, I think the foot-and-nickel estimates are way off base. A one footer might be the diameter of a pencil. Are you sure your snake is a king? Best advice is what was already stated, use a food item no bigger than snakes largest diameter.
Good luck and have fun.
