Georgia Eastern 2 Fisted Eating !

Keith Hillson Dec 13, 2004 07:58 PM

I had to snap a pic of my 2003 Ga Easterns King. I threw 2 f/t mice in for him and he wrapped em both up in about 2 seconds ! The mice are dead of course but he likes to make sure.

Never seen a king constrict two things at once. I'll have to try that!

Keith, what is your feeding schedules for your kings of various ages?

Thanks - Matt

I try and feed my hatchlings 4 pinks every 8 days so like 2 every 3-4 days. I also sometimes feed them just 3 pinks once a week.

Yearlings get 1 feeding a week as do the adults.

We're on the same schedule, Keith, LOL! I feed all of my adults once a week and the less than 1 year olds twice a week!
