">>>No reason for this to happen other than, sometimes, this is what king snakes do."
One thing to remember is that dealing with captive bred umpteenth generation snakes and you might sometimes get some off the wall behaviors. Then there's also the fact that captive animals are never truly in natural environments.
I've also got little doubt that even in the wild bonded pairs can turn on each other. My guess is that it would most frequently occur when a new snake attempts to become part of the group or when one leaves the group. Any change in the composition of the group could lead to jockeying for position but there could be all sorts of triggers.
