I think I'll need an explanation on that one too!..LOL!

Sounds to me like it's just someone's idea of a "cute" name label for a Brooks phase(brooksi) Florida Kingsnake(L.g.floridana), as their coloration and pattern can resemble that of a King Cobra. It could also very well be a silly name applied to a hybrid of some sort, which is very likely.

I would imagine if I saw a photo of this so-called "King Cobra" phase kingsnake, I would probably have to just simply shake my head and giggle.

Here is a pic of one of my "King Cobra's"!..LOL!!

best regards, ~Doug
