They eat mice, not so much house mice, lizards, snakes, birds, eggs mostly herp eggs.
Some populations are dead on snake feeders, others not.

But then, if you have a chicken coup, they support mice by the large lots and kings will take those mice with no hesitation.

The point is, a healthy king eats mice with no trickery. Its on the main nenu. Some types like hognose, eat mice in captivity, but mostly not in nature. Not that they don't, mice are just not on the main menu.

Its up to you, but you will find, mice work the best. That is, they produce the best results.

I raised some kings on lizards back in the day, I just got real tired to taking hundreds of animals out of nature. At least mice come out of a box. not sure that's a great rationalization.
