How is this for a large Kingsnake?

My large Florida Kingsnake. Here is how to handle a large and nervous king without getting bitten.

That is indeed a huge king Marcel!.....geeez!!

Can't say I'd want to get nailed multiple times by him..LOL!

He definitely seems to display an "Osceola-Suwannee" quality to his phenotype, which is extremely cool in my opinion!. Those are the hardest natural morphs to come across in Florida, and are highly coveted.

Very nice, AND impressively sized!

I really like lis looks. I have to look into "Osceola-Suwannee" localities on Google. And yes, you do not want to get bitten by him. He has a lot of power to his strike. When I put my hand in the viv he will his and strike. Feels like being hit by a 8 foot Boa.

That is a well-fed, healthy-looking one.
