I bought a baby Banded (California?) Kingsnake for my boyfriend for his birthday. I need to feed it, but he's really small. He's probably about a foot long. He doesn't look like he could handle even a pinkie, but I read that as long as it's smaller than the largest diameter of his body, he can eat it. Is that correct? And, is there anything else I could feed him since feeding mice makes me squeemish? Also, he escaped from his enclosure yesterday and got really pissy when I found him and tried to pick him up. The lid to the tank doesn't fit tightly, but I had a heavy book on top to press it down. What kinds of enclosures are best for kingsnakes?
