Kingsnake Grey Banded Health Information

Some specimens, particularly wild-caught Grey Bands, seem to prefer lizards. Avoid feeding lizards when possible, as they may transmit disease or parasites to your snake.

Breeding
Gray Banded Kingsnakes will brumate from between September and November until March or April. They should begin coupling in either April or May. Females will lay four to six eggs and the incubation period will last 62 - 75 days. Eggs should be incubated at 80 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit.

Females will lay eggs during June. They may lay as many as 15 eggs, though 3 to 10 is normal. Their eggs are leathery and measure between 30 and 40 mm in length.
