I am about to purchase 2.1 Reverse trio grey banded kingsnakes. The seller says that the males are brumated because they went off feed. Is this normal? Also what does reverse trio mean? He wants 150 for the trio

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that a standared "trio" would mean one male and two females. Therefore you are buying a "reverse trio" of two males and one female. (Less efficient ratio for breeding purposes.)
As for the brumating...I'm no expert in breeding these animals, but to say they have "brumated" just because they went off feed for awhile seems a bit vague to me. There's all sorts of reasons snakes go off feed. I really don't know what would be considered "normal" though.
