You may want to get a hold of Phil Peak, I believe he's breeding Kentucky stock. He also has a very well done web site devoted exclusively to the Black King. You can get his e-mail on Pituophis.org. Best of luck, L.g. nigra are super animals, very underrated.

I hope to breed Monmouth County Pines, Oregon Cal Kings, and Delaware Corns, maybe Eastern Fox, but I'm not holding my breath with them. Raising a new collection of Pines, good locales with nominates and mugitus, more to come. May add a couple of Kings in time, maybe nigra, or holbrooki, if I find the ones I want. Glad to see you're still doing herps.

I am working with Trigg and Lyon, Ctys Kentucky and Huntsville, Alabama locales. I am also looking to obtain additional locales. I have two adult males from Huntsville and a subadult female that should be ready to breed next year. The Trigg county kings may be ready next year too. In addition to the adult/subadult Huntsville's, I also have 1.1 babies from last year(unrelated). The Lyon Cty, KY's are also babies from last year.
I totally agree with Bart. The Eastern Black Kings are highly underrated. They are a joy to work with and the babies are not difficult to get started on pinks (at least the ones that I've worked with).
I welcome any feedback/correspondence with anyone interested in Eastern Black kings. As mentioned, I am looking for additional LEGAL locales if anyone is working with these. My E-mail is: BLB1029@cs.com

You are so right, blk kings are so underrated and nothing, but a pure joy to work with both as adults and babies. I've got five right now (Huntsville locales). 2.3, but won't be breeding them till next year! Baby from last year!
