Giant mutated Eastern Kingsnake

Keith Hillson Nov 02, 2004 02:48 PM

Here is my 2003 male Georgia Locality Eastern. He is from Will Still. In the first pic he is with a female 2004 GA from Will thats his niece. He was about that size when I got him last fall.His orange is holding strong yet as well and he is now moving into a bulk stage before he was just long and lean. He also just ate yesterday so he looks a bit thicker than he is buit not much.

Yes sorta. BumbleBee's where what Kevin Enge called his really wide banded Easterns that popped out of his pair. The breeding pair that produced "Bumblebee's" where a Echols Co., GA bred to a Tift Co., GA female. These animals are the parents of Wills older breeding pair and the grandparents to mine.
1. Echols Co., GA male 2. Tift Co., GA female 3. Offspring to #1 & #2 (Wills animals) 4. Offspring to pair #3
5. Offspring to pair #3, sister to #4 6. Offspring to Male 1 and his daughter.

Your male is looking NICE! Am I still an inch or so behind? LOL! I will post some pics of him this weekend.
My female, which is his sister, is a LOT smaller (28" due to an unexplained illness she had for about 8 months. But the good news is she has FINALLY come around and is now eating like a normal Kingsnake, but most important the stool has been normal for the last two weeks also! So, at least some good news for me. I thought I was going to lose her. I may have a breeding pair after all. . . .?

Great job with him Keith! Keep going, we'll see who makes it to 6 feet first! Like I said, Hopefully I'll have some new pics this weekend, with a MUCH better camera.
Nice pics of your little growing giant - he's looking GOOD!

Man I can't believe how big that king has gotten! And so beautiful. Definitely one of the nicest Easterns I've seen.
