hey all,
i got this female king snake last week from aguy who couldn't take care of her anymore. i don't know anything about her but i think she is 3-5 years old.
my question is, do you think she is pure king florida or a mix?
she is currently shading but i hope you'll be able to give me an answer even though.
thanks.

another pic.

I don't know, but she looks nice and healthy!

Do you have a tank for her or does she just sleep in the bed?

It Looks like an OuterBanks Kingsnake to me. Derek

To me, it looks to be a definite intergrade, but it's hard to say exactly what. Several possible getula complex intergrade scenarios could produce snakes resembling ones like that.

It doesn't look pure floridana to me, and although it could possibly have some Outer Banks(sticticeps) in it's genetic lineage, it's certainly not a pure form of that either.

That is a BHB Anerythristic. It is not compatible with the Lemke or New England Axanthics. It is considered Floridana for sure while the other Axanthics are considered Brooksi.

She looks a lot like the kings from West Central Florida Coast, Pasco, Hernando, and Citrus counties have intergrade kings that look like that. She could, of course, be a captive produced intergrade. You got any more info on her?
