A "just for kicks" project....I really had the urge to watch some grow up.
I think they meant Black King as in nigra not nigrita. That is typical of the kings found throughout the midwest(IN, KY, OH, TN). It will darken with age, but should still show a faint speckled banding as an adult. They make great pets.
