South Miami Dade Brooks Kingsnakes - Breeding Group of 4 brooks5468, brooks5497, brooks5500, brooksM5482 $1100 group   Sex:          2 male, 2 female Length:     ~ 51 inches Diet:          FT adult mice Wild Type, heterozygous for nothing.   It took several years and was surprisingly difficult to put together our breeding group of wild type Brooks Kingsnakes with provenance. Kingsnakes in Florida are currently under heavy siege from ever increasing human activities and they have been completely extirpated from large sections of the state. Brooks Kingsnakes are likewise suffering and have become difficult to locate in the wild with wild snakes sometimes suffering from mysterious neurological and physiological pathologies ostensibly related to the widespread use of pesticides/herbicides. Even under the best of scenarios, rising tidal waters indicate that this race of kingsnakes could be extirpated before 2050. I have personally found that the normal, wild type Brook's coloration is an exceptionally beautiful animal without involving any morphing or hybridizing procedures. There is some mild sexual dimorphism with this kingsnake - male patterns tend to fade a bit more with age. The second male has "super fading," meaning that the dark areas of the snake are not only reducing in size but also losing pigment, making the snake ghostly or "faded" in appearance. These getula are the Teddy bears of the getula clan - once they realize you aren't on the menu (and they figure this out surprising quickly for a getula) they are very handle-able, curious snakes.
