Neither have my much larger and stronger bull snakes. The other snakes yank or grab their food but my MBK really hits hers. I love the sound she makes when she strikes. It's like a shhwoomp sound  .

Re: Rate your MBK
Wow, it sounds like they are neat snakes. I'd heard they were nasty - biters, poopers and difficult to handle. That was what swayed me to choose a black milk snake instead. I wanted something I could hold without losing chunks of skin or being showered with poo (though I expect some musking from the milk when it's young).

Re: Rate your MBK
He doesn't like Carpets. He wants a hognose, but isn't sure he wants to give up the dream of a sleek, jet black noodle.

I love feeding Tyrion too lol. He does the same thing. It scared me one time, wasn't expecting him to come out of his hide as fast as he did. I wound up throwing the mouse across the tank ROTFL.

Re: Rate your MBK
I'm not looking for a high humidity snake this time around. Something I can keep in a glass tank 40 breeder or similar with ambient room humidity.

Re: Rate your MBK
If you want a snake that can live as an adult in a 40g tank you can't beat a king IMO.
