New snakes, Part 1: Mexican Black King

[EeekSnakes]

I went to visit a friend at his work, he hands me 2 blue pillow cases. Which are promptly shoved inside my coat.... hmmmmmmmmm.



Licorice? Hmmmmm.



ah ha, it's a purty jet black snake.





who is.......



wearing lipstick



S/he is a 2004, not sure when, but I'm approximating her age at 2.5yrs old. I'll probe her to find out for sure on the sex, the friend I got her from think she's a she based on her size. Me, being new to kingsnakes, I have no idea. The probe will tell the tail

She's a delight though. Very docile, never nipped, etc. So far I could not be happier. Of course, I got her for a steal so that helps too.

She does have some white as you can see. On the chin/mouth area, and a couple scales at the vent. She is approaching a shed.... I noticed the bluish tinge in her eyes in some of the photo's I took.
