I just read your other post where you wrote this> In the seventies, I hatched and raised three alterna, by their 18th month the trio produced 66 hatchlings. At the same time, I hatched and raised 3 cal kings, that trio produced 99 hatchlings by their 18th month.

That is hard for me to believe, so if it's true, hats off to you, if not, shame on you, lol. Do you have the data in front of you? Please break it down to individual clutches/female with dates if you can?

Disclaimer: I do keep several snakes in pairs, and some in groups. However I realize that things can go wrong, and I have to keep a close eye on those groups, to be sure they are not being adversely affected by these living conditions. Also if one happens to eat it's cagemate, it is 100% my fault, and I know the risks in advance!

What's wrong with using CAUTION?!?!?!
King Snakes! Who can make a better mouse trap?
