Maybe he meant Bullitt Co. Kentucky, some nice ones there.

That's it! That's where I got my pair from. Thanks!

Hi Todd and thanks! I meant Kentucky. Here's a pic of a neonate from the pair a few years ago. I have a few sub adults from the pair now.

haha, Scott, I didn't think you thought they were from Kansas, just yankin' yer chain! I want to get into those myself, that's the last native sub of king left to work with for me.

LOL! Yeah I did screw up there. At least I got the K right..LOL! I love black kings, I think they are the very under rated of all the common kings. Though they lack the coloration and morphs (for now) of other common kings. They are voraious feeders, calm to handle, grow fast and really not many kept in collections. Just a few of the things I love about them!
