Snake - Mexican Black Kingsnake - Unsexed

Mexican Black Kingsnakes are gorgeous, docile constrictors native to northwestern Mexico. These sleek, jet-black snakes are moderately sized and make excellent pets for intermediate keepers. They're ophiophagous—meaning they may consume other snakes—so solitary housing is essential. Provide a 40-gallon breeder tank minimum with secure hides, ambient temps of 75–82°F, and a humidity range of 40–60%. Feed appropriately sized rodents every 7 to 10 days. With proper care, they live 15–20 years. Known for calm temperaments and minimal handling stress, they're a rewarding choice for those seeking a hardy, low-maintenance species with striking appearance.
