my biggest...FL King

CreaturesOfTheNight Jun 01, 2003 02:05 PM

This is my biggest king, only other snake that comes close is the male I have for her. They are both nearing 5 feet in length and can take small rats like candy. Too bad they havent bred for me as of yet.

Shes only 3 years old. I did not powerfeed her either, one rat of appropriate size each week. She is from wild caught parents, so that might have something to do with it. But my other male, who was captive bred from Len Krysko is also as big, same age. They just grew really fast....never turn down food, not even while in shed. I actually put them on a diet now, they only get fed once a month. Great snakes, Im thinking of selling all of my kings and just keeping these. Even if they dont breed, they're awesome.
