That is if you are purchasing them, though. I was more suggesting breeding them than anything. As if you breed then you will have plenty of normals that can be then fed to your ophiophagic snake. Mind that this practice would likely be frowned upon.
However considering, with king cobras at least, their diet is primarily composed of rat snakes in the wild, I suppose it would be better to breed those for it. However each snake eater likely has it's own primary prey.

No need to shout And on my end of things this is hypothetical, I doubt I would ever get a king cobra as that is the only snake eater I would want. For some people, though, this is a serious question, as they may need a means to feed a snake eater, and they have to debate the pros and cons of each option. Look at Skiploder, for instance, who owns numerous ophiophagic snakes. It's quite sad that he had to put one down, instead of it dying from old age.
