Hi there!
I currently own corn snakes and am considering getting a King somewhere down the line.. Just wondering if there are any differences that I need to know of? I read the care sheet and it seemed pretty much the same for kings as it is for corns. But are there any behavioural, temperamental differences etc?
Thank you :)
Taz

kings are the same to look after as a corn but are more food orientated and can be a bit nippy when young but as with all snakes they calm down with regular handling,i find that kings are also out and about more than corns and generally a better snake.

Kings are better looking too

I've never seen a ugly king, but seen a few corns that are a bit dull or boring looking.

But apart from that it's like Lee says, they are more active, more lively and sometimes a bit more feisty.
