Gotta love the ignorant pet store people? I had a guy that told me snakes were social creatures and in order to learn to eat properly, they should watch other snakes eat!! lol

great idea why dont you suggest to him to put a bunch of young corn snakes in with a kingsnake, he will see all he needs to know about learning to eat...
i recently was at a reptile wholesale petshop. and a client was bringing in his 4 ft retic he had bought a year previous.
he told me that the petshop he got it from told him it would only get 5 or 6 ft long
gotta love stupid people, if it wasnt for them what would we do for a laugh...

i guess its possible because snakes grow all thier lives but just slow down alot as an adult. either this 18 foot ball is actualy a burmese, has a gland problem or is 300 years old and is owner is father time. you be the judge
