I love your posts on Herpers Forum. Good to hear from you!

Yes, she has a pattern on the sides, mostly on the right, that mimics a Chain King pattern. I'm inclined, however, to think that it's simply an aberration, and that she's not a hybrid.

If she were part Chain King, I'd expect to see a larger size & other Chain King traits. Most traits seem classic Cal King.

Only DNA testing would confirm; maybe one day I can do that. Thanks so much for your reply, Ross. I hope to meet one day and go herping in Topanga Canyon or someplace similar!
