just FTR i have fed a southern ringneck to a desert king l.g.splendida 2days later the king regurged the ringneck and subsequently died in the next couple of hours writhing and twisting appeared to be poison/envenomation of some type im not sure but i do know the king was very healthy w/no probs prior to this, susequenty i fed a tx coral to a splendida w/no ill effects whatsoever and the splendida was bitten and chewed on several times by the coral during this??? and no problems,,, this was 20years ago and my fascination with cannibilism has since subsided and i kinda will just continue to beleive that ringnecks are indeed toxic to kings,but i suppose there are factors to factor in such as ssp of kings and ssp of ringnecks id just rather not choose ringnecks as feeders when there are so many others that are safe,,,,,thems my pennies,,,also glad to here the easterns have no probs from it,,,,,,,,,thomas davis
