Kingsnakes are all one species "Lampropeltus getulus ssp." the California, Dessert, Speckled, Florida, Eastern, and others are all subspecies, except for the Scarlet Kingsnake, which is actually a variety of Milsnake (L. trianglum). There are many variations on the theme, and all are fascinating. Visit the Kingsnake Forum to see lots of good examples.
Sounds like Scabby wants that skin gone. If you can get that skin good and wet with the Q-Tip, then try using something with some roughness to it to do the same thing. Try maybe a budgie perch with or without sandpaper, or a twig with bark. All you need to do is get that old skin started and it should peel right off. You might even try gently rubbing it off with your finger (moistened).
Cheers!
