I would like to have a pair of these guys but I really only like the ones with really clean markings, one yellow spot per scale, no cross bands. I read in Ron Markel's Kingsnakes and Milksnakes book that the ones like this come from Mississippi's lower valley. Does anyone know someone that's breeding ones like these?

Wow, beautiful snake you have there! But actually that's not quite what I'm looking for. There are three examples shown in this book. One is from the western extremes and is heavily intergraded with Slendida with heavy crossbands and that is what I get around here in Dallas area, and isn't what I want. The second is similar to yours with only very slight crossbanding, but the third example has perfect yellow spots very uniform, one on each scale. I'll try to scan it and post the examples if they can be seen that way.

Why only Mississippi?

Patternless specks can be found just about throughout their range. I own an east Texas, and a southeast Missouri, both have little or no pattern. I just recently saw a picture of a snake from west central Illinois with one perfect dot right in the center of every scale - absolutely no trace of pattern. It's funny, sometimes in person a snake can look as if it has no pattern, but something about a picture can bring out faint patterns on many of them.

Speckled kings rule. I want to get more.

Like this or is this the exact opposite of what you are wanting?

Not like that, more like this...

That last one has very slight crossbar pattern but is close!
