I introduce them during winter becaue that is when MINE are big enough to eat small mice. Then they breed in the spring. On their own. And they stay together.
Where it gets confusing is because most people are still feeding there snakes pinkies. I start them on one live pink. Second meal is a fuzzy. Size goes up pretty fast from there. So do the growth spurts with each meal. They can eat much bigger mice than poeple think. They eat snakes in the wild. So their systems are made to handle larger meals.
And that has been a topic of discussion here as well. Also where people don;'t beleive it is healthy or they can eat larger meals from the get go.
See if you were a detective. You would see what i am saying all fits. problem is people think about what they do. Because they are limited. They don't beleive or want to beleive what i do. But it all matches up perfectly.
I forget what they call that in detective work. Like one witness sees the man walk up the hill and another saw him coming down. Well that is what give credibilty to stories. They don't always seem to match up.If they did it is probably a lie. But then you think...maybe the man had to go up the hill to come down the hill.
anyway,.. . Florida kings don't need to be fed lots of pinkies. Just continuely larger mice with each meal. The worst that can happen is they can't get it down. Then you learned what is TOO big. But mostly they can get it down and it will surprise you. Then you know they can get always get that size down so bump up the size on the next meal. if you have a good heat gradient and hardy snakes that want to eat. They will be big enough come spring or early summer to breed.
As we know not all indivuals or lines are as hardy as others. But the ones that are . Like my quad hets . They all grew fast because they always ate and wrren't fincky like other lines such as the mosaics ect et al. ----- "2. How many eggs could a 20 inch king even make, if even possible? Remember, they have lungs, a stomach, etc,
