Wow, thats beautiful! are black variable kings the same thing as mexican kings?

[Tim and Julie B]

Probably not. That doesn't look like my mex king. That is a georgous snake! More pics, please.

[silke]

Are those white spots on her a faint pattern or glare from the flash? Very nice either way.

Thanx everyone I love the black Variable's (L.m.thayeri) I have 2.4 of these. Of them 1.2 are the blacks. They have been breeding and as the name variable suggests I am not even guarenteed to produce blacks. I hope I do because the adults are PURE BLACK there is not a speck of white anywhere on them.
I will post another pic of the male.

Here is a pic of the male ( the white spot is a piece of substrate ) These snakes are so black they look sliver in the right light, it's pretty wild, you can kinda see it here. I realy like Variable kings I think they are one of the coolest snakes to breed,cause you never know what is going to hatch untill it is out of the egg. http://www.ssnakess.com/photopost/data/509/187black-med.jpg

Great pic! Do you ever sell 100% black thayeris, given that there's no guarantee what the offspring will look like? :) :) :)

[Gillards]

We will let everyone know when we have them available
