Greetings,
I am happy to report that my baby kings decided to eat on their own. About a week ago I got a phone call from a customer that they had a rattlesnake in their back yard and they had it contained. I immediatly rush over to retrieve the animal. Upon my arrival , I am greeted by an hysterical woman ,who has a baby black racer in a bucket in the backyard. I pulled the animal out and showed her that it was harmless and that there was nothing to fear. When I got home I through the racer in with one of the kings and he went nuts over it. The next day one of the females ate a cornsnake that was living in its enclosure for the past week, and the second female ate a cornsnake that was in its enclosure for about 2 weeks. I want to thank everybody who responded to my post. I truly appreciate everybodies input.
Regards,
Jeremy

That's great to hear. It's always a major relief when a stubborn feeder finally decides it's ready to eat, and to have them all do it at roughly the same time is even better. I wonder if it was just a timing thing, situational, observational (could they see each other eating?), or what? Very neat though. Good luck with them!! They'll be huge monsters before you know it.
