Either way I hopefully won’t have to worry about this with cypress, plus I think it looks better than aspen anyway
You picked a great snake. They are everywhere in Louisana. I stepped on one in my back yard last year walking to my chicken coop and about had a heart attack lol i saw 4 last summer not evenherring to find snakes. They are beautiful for sure.

Thanks! I’m so happy I ended up with her, not just because she’s a great species but also because she’s a great individual. She’s healthy, with a great personality and even her speckle distribution is exactly how I’d like it to be haha. I‘d love to stumble across a speckled king in the wild, but unfortunately I don’t live in their native range.

She's really gorgeous! Speckled kings remind me of the night sky full of stars... You've done a great job with Gertrude...nice to have an update.

Re: My First Snake!
Absolutely stunning! I’ve always loved speckled kings. We have them locally where I live, but I’ve yet to find a live specimen. That’s a summer goal of mine

I hope you're able to find one! I love them as well and I'm biased of course, but I think they're quite underrated.
