Hello folks, I just became a member again here at Kingsnake for the first time since the late 90's when I first got my kingsnake. I'm not sure but I think the site had just been created when I used to hang around. I recently got a new bullsnake also. I'm from Minnesota and own a 5 yr old corn, 6 yr old E. King, and a female IL Bullsnake that is probably a couple months old or so ... all CB

Is it true that males are generally larger than females in kingsnakes? I have a female E. King, she's about 6 years old now and about 4 feet. I got her as a small holdover yearling. Everyone says she has grown a lot in the last year, it is difficult for me to tell as I had not measured her before, but I agree. What kind of growth rates can I expect from her in these middle ages for her? Thank you for the help. - Matt

PS> I bought my king and corn from a breeder with a website known as the Snake Shed back in 1999, located somewhere in Texas I know. Anybody remember that place or know of the breeder?? I've always been curious of my E. King's locality. thanks

Here's my 01' 0.1 of unknown origin, this pic makes her look bigger than she is, pretty sure she's under 5'

I am happy to to receive reply like that from the eastern master himself!lol! pretty good for a $69.99 petco snake, my best score in early 02'. thanks

The Snake Shed was in San Angelo, Texas. I don't remember the guy's name (although David Wheeler comes to mind?).

I actually have a pair of easterns that I got from someone else in San Angelo. They are very likely related to yours. My male is probably about 5.5 feet and my female is about 5 feet.
