:You still have a nice snake. I've never met a common king I didn't like. lol. Mex. Blacks can start out with a ton of yellow as hatchlings, but lose about 99.9% or more by the time they hit 2 years. Some will also have a red anal plate instead of yellow. How about a 6' black milksnake?

Heh, nah. I think my next snake is going to be a black ratsnake, the original snake I wanted (but couldn't get cause it was illegal). Every now and then I'm tempted to get a real mexican black kingsnake but I already have one or at least a black kingsnake so I want something different. Course now I have to find a captive bred normal one.

Well first I have to decide if I really want to add another animal to my mini-zoo (I don't have quite a zoo yet ;), but for the little apartment I am in it's a zoo, 2 cats, snake, 10 gallon fish, 20 gallon fish).
