>>Reminds me of when he suggested that a newbie feed her little 20" alterna two adult mice at a time a good while back. Not like that was even possible at all either. So the suggestion this time to feed a no more than nickel-sized diameter snake that is 12 inches or so adult mice would be more than TWICE as ridiculous!


Maybe he was just going by diameter and did not realiz it was suggested that it was only 12" long......

A nickle size diameter snake can and will eat a small adult mouse.....But we all know it depends on the type of kingsnake and that a nickle size diameter snake is probably around 18 to 20 inches or so.......
