Hey fellas,

I was wondering if we could together create a collage, if you will, of various photos (along with localities) of eastern kings. I'm a huge fan of easterns, and had a great trip herping with Patton and Howie down in Virginia in '08. If I had the room I'd keep at least a couple locales, but I have my hands full as it is. I thought this would be the opportunity for a one-stop thread to see as many locale examples as possible.

So without any further adue, let's see a bevy of gorgeous eastern getula!!!!!!!

Awesome website. But what is this with the censoring? Kingsnake.com does not like competition or so? So just like in the good old China it gets blocked?

This is an older pic (have to take newer ones) of 1 out of 2 of my S.Carolina, Colleton county Easterns.

Scott

This is an Eastern from Jacksonville that I had back in the mid 80's. Scott

Thanks Todd...

Awesome critters Mark. I am glad I am not the only one who praises the KING. LOL. Glad other folks have not forgotten about them with all the pretty tri-colors around.

Mark, put me down for a pair of those if you produce them, and keep me on the Mole list!

Todd Hughes

LOL, I think by the end of this thread I may wanna score a pair. Va Beach easterns are my top picks, but the Currituck you posted.........*feeling dizzy*....... Thanks!

Nice. I especially like the two Ga examples.

AWESOME STUFF! Markie Mark!..LOL!

That's quite a bananza of Easterns. I really like the way the one is poised on top of the rock too!

Awesome Easterns Mark, love the SC and NC. Got to have them, so give them to me "NOW"! LOL! Scott

Here's young Rowen Co, NC F2.

Hey Bro, I just talked to Mark and there is a pic of "buck" the monster king on his site under "about us". I never knew that. Glad I could send you his way. Great guy isn't he!!

I checked it out, that is one big, monster eastern. He should change the name to Godzilla. That snake is huge!

Scott

I just checked it out. That's a long snake! Hope mine gets that big! Yeah, Marks a cool guy. I don't really know anybody else w/ a similar interest in snakes. Even the girl I live with hates them 'cause they eat mice - it's OK that the bearded dragon gobbles down crickets, but mice.....so it's nice to run into someone who can appreciate an eastern king and likes getting out there in the wild an exploring. Hopefully I can get together w/ him this summer and roam the wilderness a little.

And a 2009 Rowen Nc

Cute little future monster..LOL!

I'll start off with my Pasquotank Co., Nc. L.g.g.
These are my 2.2 pick of the litter from '08. They are some of the nicest looking L.g.g. in my collection, and should produce for me in 2011.

Here's my WC Virginia Beach male that sired Joecops L.g.g.

Here's Ryan Travis' infamous Pasquotank male.

Here's my daughter and Ryan's son, soon after it was found.

Here's one of my Va. Bch. L.g.g. from '07

Here's an aberrant male that was produced from a WC gravid
Va. Bch. female. I plan on breeding him back to his mother this season. The males produced by this female tend to be aberrant,
and this will be the first season that I've tried to breed her to
one of her offspring. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what they produce.

Sorry the photo quality is so low. I'll try and get better
pics when they all come out of the cooler for the season.
Enjoy!

Hey buddy!!! About time!! Awesome spread my man. That snake that Ryan found is STILL the nicest eastern I have ever seen.

SWEET looking Easterns!

Scott

Thanks for showing those off Phil!, those are some fantastic looking specimens bro!

Those Virginia Beach are simply the BOMB!!!

Those are amazing. That Pasq(I can't spell it) wc is stunning. Do you have any other pictures of that? Hadn't heard of this locality.

I really like that Pisstank locality.....almost as nice as the Va Beach and not by far either (IMO). Awesome stuff bud.

WOW Tony!!! Nice snakes. Pungo Ridge is awesome. Do you have any other pics of that one?? Did I see that one on Peters site?

Tony, do you still have that pungo animal? He looks as if he does not have ANY broken chains. WTF!!!

Some incredible easterns you've got there Tony.

The Pungo Ridge and Pasquotank Co., NC Easterns are the nicest I've ever seen. Incredible! Thanks for the photos, and keep em' coming...
