New kingsnake

[arrowhd]

Well, I went to the St. Louis reptile show a few weekends ago to trade a few T's. Somehow I ended up bringing this little guy back. Just could not turn him away. Lampropeltis mexicana mexicana (San Luis Potosi kingsnake). Anybody else have one?

Cool snakes! I had one a few years back when someone got rid of it along with a nice aquarium. I didn't keep him for long, but passed him along to my son. They're very attractive, and this one was easily handled.

Wow, that is a beautiful snake! I love the coloration! How much did that beauty cost ya?

Hmmm if you didn't tell me it was a kingsnake, I'd have guessed a corn morph. Very beautiful pattern

I paid $45 for him. Thanks for all the comments. He really is stunning in person. I've only handled him once but he did pretty well.

Nice acquisition. A real beauty. Nice pattern.
