Converted King Cobra.

I have a king cobra that eats pinkies. I'm not sure what will happen when he grows.
Will he eat rats or I must to take off their skin (of the rats, obviously)?.
Anyone who has Ophiophagus know about this?.
In the past people told me about the hair colud be bad for him.
What do you can say me?.

I have found that breeding your own hairless rats works best. I would alternate between snakes, and rodents.
All the very best,

We have had that work with hannahs in the past. Just make a rat burrito.

But try to alternat the diet, their bodies are designed for snakes, even though rats are more nutricious. I try to keep animals on a natural diet.
