Lampropeltis getula nigrita
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Black Mexican King Snake or Lampropeltis getula nigrita is a non-venomous reptile of the colubrid family. Adults are nearly solid black although juveniles may have very small speckles of white or yellow under their chins which fade with age. Its scales resemble black patent leather. They average 3-4 feet in length but 5 feet is not unheard of. Their range is Sonora, Mexico and Sinaloa, Mexico to a few areas of Arizona. They are quite docile and make good pets for anyone entering the field of snake keeping. They eat rodents, frogs, toads, lizards and other snakes both venomous and non-venomous.
