Re: Kingsnake keepers-- a little help please???

OOOPS!!!!!!!!!

Ok... well... I bought this plastic critter keeper tank today as a temporary home for these babies, right? And it has a plastic devider that you can put down the middle. Seemed like a great idea! So they are in their own sides...

So then, with the kingsnake being so active, I decided to offer a thawed chopped pinky just to see if maybe miraculously she would eat...

And when I just walked back in to check on her, this is what I see:




The milksnake has gotten into the kingsnake's side and is eating her pinky!!!!!!




SO, I am now preparing the kingsnake her own home!!!!!!!! Eeeek... live and learn, live and learn!!!! I really don't just post these things to point out my ignorance... I post them in the hopes that others learn from my mistakes!!!!!

But hey-- the good news is-- the milksnake has no eating issues at this point!!! lol
