Kingsnake Eastern behavior

The Eastern Kingsnake is a hardy snake that is easy to keep and fairly common, making it a good choice among beginning hobbyists.

The Eastern Kingsnake is an adaptable snake that is seen in a variety of different habitats from hardwood forests, to swamps, to more populated areas such as farmlands. They are also known to eat a variety of different foods including birds, lizards, frogs, toads, rodents, eggs, and other snakes. Like many other kingsnakes, the Eastern Kingsnake is known to eat some venomous snakes. The Eastern Kingsnake is generally considered to be a secretive species, not as commonly seen in the wild as some other kingsnakes. Though Eastern Kingsnakes are generally most active in the daytime, some are also known to be active at night, particularly when it is extremely hot during the day. The Eastern Kingsnake is known to do quite well in captivity, as it is a hardy, long-lived snake that is not difficult to feed. For this reason they are good snakes for beginners as well as more experienced hobbyists.
