Hello, I am new to this site and I would like to introduce my Snake Kaylie, she is a California King Snake (Lampropeltis Getula Californiae). She is the only one I currently have but I am looking to expand my collection with a Western Hognose (Heterodon Nasicus) and maybe a Kenyan Sand Boa (Eryx Colubrinus Loveridgei). But for now, have a look at what I have:

i love kings:) mmm humbugs! i have had some bad experiences with them though:), everytime i picked up this one snake it would musk on me!! :: puke:: now there were about 4 identical snakes and i lost track of which one was in which viv so i wont pick any of them up!:) and another was REALLY snappy and kept trying to eat my face! scary as hell......ah theyre cute though! i like them when the black is chocolate coloured:) thats the same type of king snake isnt it?

Yea, she is very calm, I can do anything with her and she will not snap, she even lets me open her mouth with my fingers (to check for problems, clean hands of course) without putting up a fuss.

XxRachxX, CalKings have been known to deficate (maybe that's what you meant) on people if they feel insecure but they do not have scent glands to release odour. My King is true Black and White, I would say 50/50.

Those are some great looking shots. I love kings too, we've only got two right now, but I hope to have some more soon.

Hi GREAT SNAKE ..My Merlin is marked in the same way...very gentle ...I handle him often... the only time he is cranky is during shed mode...than I will leave him alone pretty much ..Kings are beautiful.

A banded king snake was my very first snake I ever had. Nippy little fellow he is.
