    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hello all,

I've a question that I can't seem to find an answer to. Here's the situation:
In early July I bought a 3 week old florida kingsnake at a reptile expo. His feeding schedule was one pinkie every 5 days.
On September 19th I bought a scale and weighed him in at 32 grams. At the time of the weigh in, he'd have been 3 months old.
My question is, does this seem right? The reason I'm asking is because while researching feeding schedules, I came across the Munson plan. I know that this was written for corn snakes. From what I can see, a 3 month old CORN snake is likely to weigh far less than 32 grams. But what about kingsnakes?

P.S.: after that weigh in, I've switched him to 2 pinkies every 5 days. He's had no problem with this so far, but I'm starting to wonder if I should just go ahead and move him to fuzzies.
