These are adult sibs to Will's breeders. Both are females I think. All pics by Kevin Enge.

This pic is one of Kevins animals from this year. its from the big old Statenville male pictured above to one of his daughters. Seems when these animals are back bred they kick out 1 or 2 of these wide banded animals while most will be of normal thickness. We will find out if its genetic when Will breeds Frank "The Tank" to one of his wide banded sisters next season (if he doesnt devour her first LOL). Its probably just a trait but a cool one at that !

Nicely done Bro. I think we'll be able to do as much with this blooodline as has been done with californiae, except with some color. Whaddya think?

Yeah they could make for some interesting patterns. Hank "The Tank" looks to be near 70% white. The question is will that increase with back breeding ??? It would be cool to see a 90-100% white big Eastern Kingsnake.

Very nice pics Keith. I think your right with some back breeding we might see some very exciting colors and patterns from this line. I have a trio of Wills chains and they will breed this year. I cant wait to see what they produce! Ken

Fantastic photos and info! I should be receiving my 2 babies from Will sometime in the next week or so and am really looking forward to having these beauties in my collection, and of course seeing what they'll produce when they're old enough. Once they arrive and have settled a bit I'll try borrow a digital cam and get some pics to post. If I can't I do still have the pics Will sent me when I had originally inquired about them.
These are by far some of the nicest kingsnakes I have ever seen, and I'm honoured to be part of something fantastic like this
