Hybrid??

hi guys, I have a couple of kings (California in theory) since 2008, I wanna ask you if do you think they're hybrids (and between what), cause of their strange pattern

Re: Hybrid??

They look like Lavender Cal Kings to me. I have a pair that look identical to yours

Re: Hybrid??

I'm not convinced by the side, if you look in the 2nd photo in the right part look like speckled between bands,so the bands are not clearly divided like others I've seen, an are really thin and irregular.

Re: Hybrid??

It looks a bit like there could be some Desert Kingsnake (Lampropeltis getula splendida) in them.

Re: Hybrid??

Albino California Kingsnakes, kept & bred 100s of them over the last 10 years.
Not Lavender Albinos either as they are far more purplish & have ruby red eyes as well, bred those for approx 5 years.
CKs come in a very wide variety of patterns, I see nothing there I have not seen dozens & dozens of times before, Mark

they dont't look fullblooded cali to me either.

they have strange head patterns....possibly florida?

checkout the headpatterns on mark's cals they are totally different than yours.

i dunno for sure...they may even be a 3-way cross.

they look good and healthy....i have about 50 kingsnakes and don't see anything wrong with yours. its all good.
