Interesting that King snake is so docile. I've read that they tame very easily, but bite like hell when they're first captured
I don't know. I've never found them to be very bitey. I had one when I was a kid that was a mean bastard, but that's the only one. Maybe it's a difference in the subspecies? If I'm not mistaken, you guys have the speckled kings in southern LA (assuming that's where you are), as opposed to the blacks we have up here.

I'm here to catch this entire thread on fire.

when we were kids we used to catch salt and pepper king snakes for the pet shops...we would just let the snake bite a finger and then pick him up, while he had a mouth hold it was easy to wrangle them
it really doesnt hurt at all and you can pry the jaws loose when you're ready. ive never had a king snake try to bite when just being held though, they are pretty docile
