Just do a search on "FR" (Frank Retes)on the search function.

Pay attention to:
1) brumation methods
2) feeding (lots of it especially the females)
3) Put the male in the female encloser in march (spring)or brumate the pair together so they will form a bond.
3) Use perlite as a incubation substrate
4) just stick the eggs a closet and wait 60 days to hatch (no inscubator needed for kingsnake eggs)
