Nice pic Jetzen, but I think your Mexican Black King is the winner hands down on with that rodent tail grab trick LOL
Also if you get a chance, post some pics of your Eastern Black Kings (Nigra) when you get a chance. How is their groth rate compared to your speckled kings? Aggressive feeders? Thanks, and have a good weekend.

Steve, thanks for asking about my Thomas Davis nigras, they have a very strong feeding response and will readily take ft's from my fingers, they are growing very fast but aren't as stout as some of the other subs in my collection.
these are old pics updated ones will be posted soon

Good looking Nigra Jetzen. Thanks for the pics. I have had several people say they can be easier then eastern kings as babies because they will almost always take pinkies from the very start. Where as some Eastern babies tend to want lizards/snakes to start. Speaking of Eastern Kings, I just purchased another one myself, so I'll post pics next week. Jet Black with canary yellow chains.

Good Luck with your new eastern I hope it is already well started b/4 you get it.

JETZEN - these pics are so COOL!

Man, these pics of snakes eating dead mice out of your hands are so neat. I especially like that you post dozens of pictures per day of the same thing.

"WOW"... That is all I can say!!!
