This is a seller's picture, but you get the idea. I'm getting a pair from them.

Really nice looking king. Looking forward to seeing your photos of them once you get them.

They are beautiful black snakes. I almost went for a pair of those, but found a seller with lucy female and normal male black rats and got those instead.
