King Cobra questions

For those of you working with King Cobras, I have a few questions to satisfy my curiosity.

Are there many CBB specimens available, or are the majority wild caught? Do they take mammals in captiivity very easily? For the ones that switch, how big a prey item do they take relative to body girth? How fast is their metabolism? How often do you feed? For the larger specimens in particular (14+ feet), what, how often and how large do you feed them?

I cant imagine how many corn snakes you'd have to give a 16' cobra, but I'm curious to know.
