choosing a variety--suggestions?

I have pretty much decided to buy a King snake. This was a big step for me, and there are certain family members who are positive that I have taken leave of my senses. I contacted various people, and have seen far too many beautiful snakes.

Instead of making it easier to choose, the pictures have made it much harder. I must say that Mark and Annette, in particular, each have amazing snakes! I want to buy far more than I can afford from both of them. Well, wish me luck as I continue to look at the pictures they have sent me. If I find that I like the temperment of the snake I get, I am very worried that we may end up with a few different kinds of King snake. Trying to choose between the varieties seems like choosing between chocolates--they are all good. The forerunners are San Louis Patosi (regular phase) and Grey banded, although I really like the Goins too.

Does anybody have suggestions that might help me decide between these snakes? I will give you some information that might be pertinent in choosing between these snakes. I am used to corns. I plan to handle the snakes. My two daughters, who are very young also touch/hold the corns. Our house is very busy. I don't like coping with picky eaters (it stresses me), and I plan to feed frozen/thawed. I know these snakes reach dfferent sizes, that is not an issue. Please feel free to offer suggestions.

Thanks,
Tara Garratt
