Cheers Grumpy, I was pretty sure it wasnt pure king. I was thinking about gopher snake cross.
No im not buying it, although its very nice, it belongs to a local school. |

just found this info, if it is a Blotched
"The Blotched Kingsnake is a rare form of the Common Kingsnake found only in a small area of the panhandle near the Apalachicola and Ochlockonee Rivers. As its name suggests, it often has dark blotches. The blotches appear over a background of cream-colored spots on each scale. Sometimes the blotches are absent, and it may have dark stripes or be completely speckled instead.
Lampropeltis getulus goini. Range in Florida: panhandle around the Apalachicola and Ochlockonee Rivers. Maximum length: 7 feet." |

On the dark side I was told it was a florida king, and that it was fat. One of those was already clear to me  |
