DO keep us updated?
Oh yeah, I sat there and watched her explore her tub to make sure she couldn't squeeze out of the air holes! Thankfully the edges of the lid are watertight and have latches, so she should be secure (knocks on wood). I'll try to feed her for the first time on the weekend and let y'all know how it goes!

I've kept these before (years ago)...they're my favorite king snakes (tied with CA desert kings, anyway).

I was thinking about getting a mbk. They're definitely one of the best looking snakes imo.

Kings are awesome snakes. I've always favored Cali Kings, but MBKs sure are gorgeous!
Best of luck!

I definitely love Cali Kings too, they're gorgeous! I'll actually be looking for a Cali King at NARBC, if I can find an adult female I like... I know there will be some cute babies but I'd rather pick one up who's already grown, since as I said this MBK is my first tiny one and I'm still learning about raising them.
(I'm the kind of person who usually prefers getting their pets as adults, but reptiles are much different than a puppy or kitten so I can tolerate their immaturity much more easily and I'd like to get the hands-on experience!)

Re: Yet Another MBK Thread
Great looking MBK. They're such beautiful snakes. I wouldn't buy too many pinkies. She'll be on fuzzys and hoppers in not time.

It's funny you say that. If I ever add another King it'll be an adult. But my reasons are different. I've had juvenile Kings and corns in the past. And it's fun watching them grow up. But I just don't enjoy the constant hand over hand handling. As juveniles they're just too flighty and I don't enjoy handling sessions. Been there, done it, loved it. But moving forward I'll stick to adults who've mellowed out with size and confidence.
But they are SO dang cute as juveniles!!! Hahaha.
