Well said Kev, I keep sayin indogos, coachwhips and racers are cousins and were blessed with longer teeth and stronger jaws then other snakes with venomn or the abillity to constrict. The long sharp teeth, jaw strength and sheer aggressivness are their venomn. also I have witnessed a 40 inch, one year old eastern coachwhip bite a mouse mid body and the mouses eyes pop out of its skull. and as for kings vs racers, one is the fastest the other very slow, and though kings like to eat ratsnakes they meet them under rock piles and in holes in the ground, racers are surface snakes and book when approached by anything. BTW I've been a commerical collector of snakes in central fla for 25 years, seen over 50 indigos in the wild and like Kev been sucsessful breeding and rearing near a hundred baby easterns since 2005. dont believe everything you read in a book, just ask a pro, right here...JB
