I did! I've been pretty busy with the move & a recent trip out east, but hopefully, I can get some updated pix fairly soon.

I went to Tinley last weekend & picked up yet another Kingsnake. LOL
I picked up a MBK male. I looked for a female, but all were males. I'll find a female MBK at some point.

I will try to get pix later this week. I offered their second meal with me tonight, & two of the babies are holding out on eating.
I ended up rewarming the pinks in hot water & put each of the two in small deli cups, to leave over night, in hopes that they will eat.

I did get a good photo of my MBK while I was at my BF's in MD, before I shipped him to my friend here in WA.

He's so shiny!

My Elliot is holding out on eating, but I found him soaking in his water dish this morning so I'm hotel that after his shed he'll eat. He's had 2 meals with me, and it's been about a month since I've had him.

Thanks! I love MBK's! I found a female for him!
Mike Madec from Isis Reptiles has a couple clutches, I believe. They are male heavy, so they're not selling females by themselves.
I'm pickig up a 1.1 pair of MBK's & the male will go to Tara, who has a female MBK. That will give us each an unrelated pair to work with.

MBK's are pretty cool! They are the poor man's Indigo! :)

I found out from Mike Fedzen that one of the babies I got (one that has refused f/t twice) was only eating live, & the other two had eaten f/t multiple times before I got them.
The two fed f/t, have each eaten once & refused once.

I'll be looking for live pinkies this weekend for them.

It's not a HUGE deal, but I would have liked to have known, because I did have a small colony of mice & I culled them before I left for Tinley. I really don't have a very good place to keep them, other than the laundry room, which is off the kitchen & I really do not want to deal with the smell.

I had considered investing in one of the wooden storage sheds, insulating it & putting feeder rodents in there, but I will have to see if I can afford that anytime soon.

I think once they have been with me for a while, they should switch over to f/t. Kings eat anything, right?? LOL
