The head pattern on the secon one is sweet. I love these guys.

You mean agalma of course. Nice looking snakes. I like it when they have a lot of color on the snout.

Oops... Yea i guess i did type that wrong!! Please have mercy on my never ending stupidity!

My personal preference is the all black snout.

Personally I like the other subspecies better than agalma.

I wish someone would hurry up and find an albino zonata - not that I want an albino, but it may help captive propogation for the pet trade of other subspecies become legal in CA.

With a bag limit of only one, it makes it more difficult for something like an albino to pop out of line breeding bringing out a hidden gene.

Someday I hope to find my unicorn, and when I do, I hope I have the will power to only collect it if it is a neonate.

Of all the Mountain Kings these guys are probally the most under appreciated of them all and they are a real joy to work with. We kept several pairs for about ten years and really liked them. Congradulations on a great looking pair.
