Mountain Kingsnakes by Brian Hubbs. The bible on zonata.

"Zonata" by Mulks/Merker is another must have for Z fans.

I concur w/ the other gentlemen. It also doesnt hurt to ask those that know the ins and outs on zonata captive care and propagation. Much different than other kings, thank goodness.

One day soon I am going to write up a lengthy article on my experiences working with zonata. They really are the coolest herps out there in my humble opinion. I have a bunch of blogposts over my Baja website that are archived in case anyone wants to check them out.
