Thanks! He is a 2004 Mexican Black king. His eyes are very black like the rest of him, but when light shines on them they take on the irradescent blue glow. I have wanted one of these for a while and very happy with this ones temperment as well.

Im not sure if you are referring to my snake or Dawns. In case its me mine he is a Black Milksnake Lampropeltis triangulum gaigeae. There is something about a glossy all black snake thats pretty damn cool. I think Steve Craig has a really large Mexican Black King thats quite impressive. I dig the B Milks a little more mostly because of the killer color change and they are as black as you can get (like an Indigo snake)and they get huge 5-7' with 6 footers being not uncommon.
