On the classified some guy is selling 7 and 6 foot Cal Kings ! Of course no pics but I wonder if they are all green and have been exposed to Gamma Radiation and only get the BIG when he picks them up and gets them ANGRY LOL.

I was eager to see them so I emailed him and he sent some pics of an old world ratsnake (I have no idea what kind). The others pictured were Florida corns.

Very funny lookings kings,

If he had said Eastern Kings, I _might_ have believed it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Eastern Kings are the largest of the genus. Conant/Collins (1998) list L. g. getula with a record of 82 inches, or just under 7 feet. Cal Kings aren't included (only Eastern/Central N. America), so don't know what the published record is for Cals.

In any case, it appears from the referenced pics that they aren't Cal Kings.
