Hi,
I really like this female cal.king. She has a full complete stripe-(it ends early but doesnt have one broken spot), and she has a pure black ventral from just under the head all the way to the very end of the tail. Just wanted to share the new pic.

Hi,
No, infact only a couple of those kings are wc. Of the cal.kings I have 1.1 wc from verbenia-(legally collected myself, and will breed next year) and the other wc cal.king is a Reche Canyon locale female-(i couldnt find a male this year in time for breeding so i used an albino thin banded male, got 4 big eggs from her, hopefully later this year I can find a male from there, before most of its coverd in new homes). But I really dont like pics taken of snakes in their cages or in the hand, I prefer natural looking backgrounds, I think it even makes the snakes look nicer and a much better pic. I live in Twin peaks, up in the San beranrdino mtns, so i have lots of natural background choices in my yard, plus its pretty much forest across the street, so once in a while I'll take a couple over there and get some nice pics. Oh yeah, I do have 1 wc pyro too, a prescott locale female, it was given to me last year, it had a pretty bad cut too, like claw marks to the bone, it healedfine and she laid eggs this year-(5, all looked good and rotted in 2 weeks time, bummer), but yes, most all of my snakes are cb, and alot of them are moprhs but I do have straight lines of normals because i really like the normal color and pattern the most on snakes-(except for the hypo gene, i think hypos make animals just look much brighter and give them a dayglow look that I really like). Thanks for your time,
