Meet Thomasina...

[Albert Clark]

New pickup from the recent White Plains expo. She was 1 of two females left at this particular table. The black spot on her nose was a dead sell for me. Wifey has always wanted to replace our male Arizona mountain king that passed away about 2 years ago. This girl has already escaped her quarantine tank 2 days after we got her settled in. It took all day and some serious apartment rearranging b4 I found her. Haha. :D

Love the nose spot! Super cute! What inspired the name?

Thanks prairie, she is. Wifey named her Thomasina bc the previous AMK we owned was a male. His name was Thomas. Lol. ;) Kind of like a tribute I guess.

Oh wow, beautiful snake!

Tyvm P, We always had a fascination with the azmk. So appealing to the eye, their true docile disposition and of course what every kingsnake represents which is control of the wild venomous populations.

[Pogie]

Is that the same kind as the one that passed away? Love the name :)

Yes Pogie, same species exactly. Thanks .
Awesome Pyro AL!

Yeah, thanks man. Sometimes when you look at them as they are navigating their enclosure how those bands just seem to make you dizzy. Haha. I wonder if that is a defensive mechanism for them in the wild?

Thank you Dave. There really is something special about the kingsnakes in general and what they have to offer. This sub species is just a perfect example of a kingsnake that is often overlooked.

Neat, will it keep the colors as it matures?

Man, this snake is beautiful!
