Actually
There are two snakes in the picture. A California kingsnake and a hatchling corn snake. The hatchling was a non-eater for about seven weeks. While cleaning cages these two accidentaly got into the same container. They both have a bite on each other. The hatchling corn had the kingsnake by its lower jaw so the king could not get the corn into its mouth. They were like this for about 30 minutes and then the kingsnake released its musk and it was all over. They both released their holds on get other. The non-eating corn hatchling ate the very next day and it has eaten at every feeding since. The kingsnake is OK too. It just has a hurt ego.
