I thought I'd snap a couple of pics of this guy. He decied to give me a little taste test right as I snapped one of the macro shots.....right on the ring finger. lol.

I just hope in '08 he doesn't run from the girls like he did this year. BTW, he is much more BLUE than the pics show.

Thanks for looking.

He’s getting some size. Very nice. Man I’d be trying with every female NE axanthic, hypo, ghost, and sister/mother I could. That boy could father projects for a decade!

I might do that if I had the females to put him too. I sold most of my breeder kings over the last few years. I have very focused goals in mind and want to stick to them. Keep your fingers crossed.

Thanks again.

That is a beautiful snake! What kind is it?

that's a very nice brooks king (aka florida king).

What's the color morph?

Its actually a brooks x goini axanthic.

There's a pattern on his head that looks like a ghost with its arms up in the air. Anyone else see that?

Brandon,
I remember the old shots of that snake. It actually looks better than I thought it would as an adult. Thanks for sharing!

That has to be one of the nicest looking animals I've ever seen. Awe inspiring!

Thanks! I thought the same thing when it crawled out of the egg. It's definatley one of my favorite kingsnakes to date. I just hope he breeds next season.
