Great pics! I, too, have been considering getting a kingsnake. I choose a male hognose as my first snake and have been kicking myself ever since for not going with a larger snake like a king (plus the hog has feeding issues which never helps lol).

I've always wondered about temperament with these guys. After having so many, do you find that they all tend to calm down with handling or do some stay feisty into adulthood?
