Yet another requested video! Take a look at, what I think, is one of the most badass snakes ever.
Also, I accidentially kept on calling Barnaby him/his/he, even though she is a female. Sorry Barnaby, and sorry guys for the confusion!

Humans: "Oh, god, a rattlesnake, we're all going to diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!"
CKS: "Hey, look, a snack! And here I was feeling a touch hungry, too."
:D
Now if you ever find a rattle snake in your house this snake has you covered with rattle snake insurance!
Exactly! Better safe than sorry! :-)
KenReyUbe C: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Imagine if you have a Califonia King Snake, you dont need to worry if you see a smaller venomous snake in your house. Cause he/she is gonna go nom nom on that ass
I did my research before bringing a snake home and picked the Kingsnake because they are active and aggressive eaters and I'm so glad I did. I also like the fact that they grow to a good size, but not so big as to be unmanageable. I picked a black and white banded Kingsnake, named him Nessie and we've been inseparable ever since. Every day while I'm working at my desk he's out exploring, sometimes getting into trouble or hanging out in my lap while I type. He's curious too and does the unexpected, one day he decided he wanted to climb to the top of my 5 drawer filing cabinet from the floor and I watched as he made his way handle to handle till he'd reached the top and then lowered himself off the top and down my arm. Absolutely the best pet snake decision I could have made. Right now I'm getting ready to upgrade him to a 30 gal long tank which I think will be fine for his permanent home. He was the tiniest of babies when I adopted him so he's gone from a tiny plastic tank, to a 10 gal, to a 20 long tank and now the final move. He is my first snake and has been an endless delight ever since.
Don't forget that they're almost immune to rattlesnake venom
My California kingsnake would eat chicken drumsticks and chicken breast once in a while as a treat , unfortunately he escaped his terrarium and got out , good thing is that I live in the hills in California so I'm sure he's on living
Brayan Segura Never tried feeding with chicken, maybe I should give it a go!
Fingers crossed, I'm sure he is thriving :-)
Brayan Segura snakes that have been living in captivity cannot survive in the wild
Ben Jay yep, they ar ready to go out of the egg so they never have to learn basic survival skills like some baby mammals. They arent just killing machines but are born more prepared than other animals.
the problem seems to know when a snake needs food? Some people say that it can take months when they want to eat again.
I started my breeding career with cal kings. always a huge place in my heart
Could you do an in-depth care video on california kingsnakes? And also is there a difference between california kingsnakes and mexican black kingsnakes?
Absolutely! :-)
Barnaby is beautiful!
Thank you! :-)
I just got my California kingsnake 5 days ago and he is so docile and beautiful i love him so much.
Could you do a video of a tour of your reptile room? I love your videos!
Hi Nia! Sure I would love to do that! :-)
I was literally just looking through your channel for that video! would love that :)
Nia Carroll // yesssssssss, I want one too
I have a male California king snake 😘
I just got into pets, have a Cali King myself and I FUCKING LOVE HIM!!! :D really enjoyed your video seeing yours! SNEKS DOES A CUTE. snek is life.
I have a California king snake and its like 3.5 feet he is awsome
I have a Mexican black kingsnake and just got a california kingsnake these are by far my favorite snakes and I had a ball python as my first. Absolutely love them great eaters, look mean and are so friendly when handled correctly. I'm gonna make a video of them soon. Love your channel btw keep posting more kingsnake videos please!!!!
Another substrate suggestion and that is Carefresh paper litter. It's generally used for rodents, but I've found that it's great for snakes. I happened to have a bag left over when I first brought my King Snake and thought I'd try it and since it was a natural brown color it didn't look bad at all. I'm now sold on it as it's inexpensive, great to burrow in, easy to spot clean, flushable and safe. Most people don't think of it for reptiles, but my Nessie loves it. Another great thing, once he's created a tunnel it will stay a tunnel that he can use over and over.
One other thing that I think is important. A pet snake, when given the opportunity to explore and entertain themselves, is a much happier snake. It is considered normal by many to keep them in drawers to look at and people I've talked to ask me all the time... "Well what do you do with him"? My response is to tell them what "he" does which often they don't believe until they see for themselves. My point is if you take the time to really watch your pet and get to know them, whatever species they are you will be making them a happy "home" not just keeping a beautiful creature in a box and in turn they give back so much.
Agreed but aren’t drawer systems mostly used for breeding?
Umbra Reptiles They should be, but from what I see and people I know alot of people keep them this way and never really experience how wonderful they are as pets when encouraged to explore and enjoy some freedoms. Even the breeder I adopted my Nessie from was amazed when I showed him pics of him climbing my 5 drawer file to the top.
Thank you for this great video,i also find it enjoyable!!!
I have the same snake but the opposite color mine's all white with black stripes and they are very badass and it was amazing to see king snakes eat rattlesnakes
omg midsummer murders is my shizzz also im getting a carolina king snake soon. great video
Yay midsommer murders!! :-)
Getting one this weekend or next weekend I was going to get a ball python but you changed my mind😊 I also love your videos bc you have helped me learn alot and you are so honest and your really pretty btw
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to read that! Which snake have you chosen instead? The california kingsnake? :-)
Jossers Jungle yes😊
I've been looking into a King snake, I saw one I really love. I can't deside between a gecko or the king snake. I just have a few questions, my first question is will they ever get big enough that you have to feed them something like Rabbit? also what would the humidity have to be? Thanks you. ❤ really love your video. Subscribed!
I don't have a California kingsnake but I have a Brooks kingsnake and they are extremely similar to California kingsnakes
My boyfriend and I just got a California Kingsnake because of your videos saying how awesome they are! His name is Severus (yes, from Harry Potter) and he is red, black and yellow!
Are california king snakes available in other countries ?
Omg I have the same snake pillow as her in the back
just bought a little baby one now waiting for his enclosure to ship can’t wait to bring him home
Think I would probably go with a Ball python again~ not as active & easier to clean up after😬.
@Jossers Jungle, if I was to get a yearling/young California King snake, can I start them out on newspapers for substrate like you did? Or do I need to use aspen so they can burrow?
Would you recommend a Californian King Snake or a Ball Python as a first Snake Pet? I would like to have the most docile snake because i'm afraid of getting bitten :S
can u uhmmmm do a what you need for a kingsnake video?
My room temperature because I don't have heating source upstairs can drop to 7 degrees Celcius in winter. But with a heat mat and a lamp( Just is winter) it's easy to maintain. I live in Belgium.
Do cal kings need heat mats or no? Because I prefer to use mats instead of light bulbs
Can you do a video about what if the snakes clget stressed on the 4th of July because of the fireworks.
It's a bit difficult for me, we don't celebrate 4th of juli here in my country. But I can make a video on what to do if your snake is showing signs of stress, that is a very good idea! :-)
I have a baby California king she’s only 2 and 1/2 ft, and have no idea how old she is, how long do you think it’ll take for her to be full size she’s in a 60 gallon tank at the moment but I’d like a larger one and tips would be helpful thanks
I'm thinking about getting my first snake and thinking about the California kingsnake. Would you recommend this snake?
Absolutely. The california kingsnake was my first snake, they are easy to care for, good eaters and tolerate handling very well :-)
I really really want a pet snake and I have watched so many of your videos also !! I’ve been wanted a snake for such a long time and I want a California Kingsnake but I don’t think I can find them like anywhere near me ??? Are they usually only with breeders, or special places ? I tried to search but it didn’t help too much.
Hi!
It can be difficult locating specific species of snakes depending on where you live. I've only been able to find California Kingsnakes at either the pet store or at reptile expos. :-)
What size tank do you keep your king snake in? I'm purchasing an adult from someone and their tank and everything included. The tank is a 20 gallon, 30×12.5×12.5 which I thought sounded small? Is this okay or should I avoid? I'm a beginner this will be my first snake
My California Kingsnake is 3 years old and is about 110cm. Do you think it can grow a little bit more? Yours is really beautiful by the way :)
Olivier Chopard it might get a bit bigger maybe to like 120cm but not much, it will probably stop growing at that age.
Where do you put the snake when you clean the container
Is careing for a speckled king snake and California kind snake the same??
Can you make a full complete video on a Mexican Black Kingsnake? I want to get one but want all the right care tips
Hi,
You can use the same tips for a mexican black kingsnake as I give in this video. They are almost identical in care :-)
@@JossersJungle okay great! Thanks so much!
You said “a badass pet that you can basically go buy anywhere.!” well I went to del taco, Best Buy, gas station, Walmart, car dealership, jiffy lube, Apple store, radio shack, Pizza Hut, the mall, Gucci, Costco movie theatre, Red Robin and the barber... and I couldn’t buy one anywhere...🤦🏽♂️ lies.... jk love your videos
Hello Josse , its easy to take care of thems? i have a ball pyton , a boa and a couple of leopard geckos , a friend want to gift me a california King snake , i just dont have enogh info about thems.
I decided to watch this to take a next step towards not being fearful of snake.
Hi 🖐️ how often can I handle the California kingsnake and for how long? 😊 Love your videos
Depends on the snake :-) Usually king snakes will allow for handling quite often and for long periods of time. By a rule of thumb I'd say about twice a week for half an hour tops.
Can I use this info for Mexican black kingsnakes ❤️
I know this may sound dumb but it’s a serious question. I have a California king snake however, people called him banana king snakes is that the same thing?
Do they eat fish
OMG i love midsomer murders!
i got a king snake about a month ago and he was eating at first and he is quite small.. a few weeks ago he stopped eating and i dont know why and he hasn't ate since im kinda worried and im new to owning snakes. not really sure what to do :( im looking for all the advice i can get. im trying my best to make him comfortable and everything.
meadow taylor is he in shed?
hey, im thinking about getting a California kingsnake in the near future but i have a concern. My room temp. is at a constant 21-23 celsius because i have chinchillas. Will that be a problem for a Californien kingsnake, and so i need a heeting pad and a lamp?
Victoria Binder Hi! You will always need to have a heating source in the terrarium. In my experience there is no difference between the heating mat and the heating light, so it's up to you which one you prefer. I don't know if chinchillas will cause any problems, I do know that when we bring rats into the reptile room and the snakes can smell them, they do go into this feeding mode and become more aggressive, because they can smell food. I don't know if it's the same with chinchillas. Good luck! :-)
I just got a baby cali king. How long does it take for it to get used to you? Mines always frightened and trying to get away and pee on me 😅
It will propably take some time. Baby snakes are quite skittish :-)
I've done a video on baby snakes and what to expect:
ua-cam.com/video/kzn8CiHxT9I/v-deo.html
Mine is young and he really doesn’t want me to touch him ever lol. He’s my first snake and he’s very fast so he makes me a little nervous :/
My Cks shake is tail everytime i put my hands in the terrarium and try to bite me... he is a baby and i wish that he will calm down in the future... none of my snake is aggressive except him :(
i caught some california kings in arizona. they were more black and white striped. looked more constrasty and cooler than that one. but they were nasty. they would ttly bite and i put two together and they battled each other so i separated them.
Not sure, but that looks more like an Eastern Chain Kingsnke. They get larger. Either way beautiful animal.
I got my Brooks king snake like 2 weeks ago I'm trying to get him used to me. It has bite me a couple times and seems interested at striking at my fingers. I put him in a pillow case to get him used to being handled. I just want to know if there is anything else I can do. He's a feisty one and it kind of scares me.
How often are you handling? I'm a new snake owner myself. If you go on Facebook and search simply snakes a group will come up if you ask the question there you will get answers and they're not judgemental
ClimbingIvy thanks I'll look them up. I handled him a few times a week like a month ago. Then stopped for a bit. But recently I've been taking him out more. I try to handle him for like an hour or so
I have never seen a king snake eating a king cobra. But the king snake were immune to venom.can he take a king cobra? Or a black mamba?
While I enjoy all Lampropeltis sub species, my favorite, by far is the Eastern King Snake.
hi, excuse me but i want to buy a cal kingsnake but my dad won't like the idea of getting frozen mice in his fridge, and my mum is kinda sensitive so idk if i can always feed him alive food so there is an alternative to these? like ik it has to eat mice, it's ok, but i can't weekly feed him mice... oh and any other advice would be great. btw, sorry if i sound numb, i don't know much about snakes beside my countries ones ( i'm a big snake lover, but only recently it pop out that can buy my own and not "hunting" them while hiking =)))) )
Trapped Inside what my friend does because her mother is against the idea of keeping mice in the the freezer, is when her snake is more active and looking around her terrarium this shows that she is hungry. My friend will then that day go out to buy a frozen rat from our local reptile shop, thaw it and feed it that day. Because snakes need weekly feeding this is doable. So every week she will buy a frozen rat, thaw it, feed it and then repeat in the next 7-10 days or when the snake appears to be looking for food. Hope this helps and do speak to some reptile owners because everyone's different :)
You could buy a cooler to keep the snakes in
Nice video
Are you planning to get a Milk snake?
do ball pythons like carpet or hard floor
Can you keep adult cali kingsnake in a 36x18x18?
If it fits with the minimum requirements of the length being at least 3/4 of the snakes total length, and the depth being 1/3 you should be good.
The bigger the better for a california kingsnakes :-)
Cal Kings "BAD ASS", yes they are. I have 12 Cal Kings right now.
Can you do a care video for a Mexican Black Kingsnake?? Or is it the same as a California Kingsnake??
They are very much alike :-)
@@JossersJungle I'm sorry to bug you again, but are there any major differences in caring for them??
@@JossersJungle Also, thank you for responding so quickly; I really appreciate that. :)
Have you ever been bitten by a snake?
Where can you buy snakes? I swear the moment I start looking into places to purchase them (online) because there are no shops nearby... I dont know what site to trust. Moment i start reading reviews, its hopeless. Can someone recommend some captive-bred snake/reptile websites in the U.S??
Hi!
I usually buy mine at reptile expos or second-hand. If you live in the US I can highly recommend Hissy Fit Reptiles (hissyfitreptiles.com) Doug who owns the business has some amazing looking ball pythons :-)
Kingsnake.com/Morphmarket.com
Do yours every try eating your fingers?
Is it really not necessary for a heat lamp? Eventhough room temperature drops
Sean Garais heatmat should be able to do the job :-)
Jossers Jungle Thanks!💕😁
Where’s your accent from?
How often and how do you clean the terrarium? Please answer
I clean it everytime it is dirty, change the substrate and use watet and paper if necessary :-)
Jossers Jungle thanks! Im planing in getting a king snake myself but my parents wont let me!
I love you so so much
do you own a burmese python? I need help for sizing the rodents that i should feed my baby burm thankss
Jodi D Hi! I don't own a burmese, unfortuantely they are illegal to have in the country I live in :-) but a good rule of thumb is for the rodent to be no bigger than the biggest part of the snake. Hope it helps a little!
Jossers Jungle oh right they became the pythons that got into the red list. anyway will keep that in mind! always loved your videos 😁😁😁
It is such a shame, I adore burmese and really want one! You are so lucky having one! Thank you so much, I'm really glad to hear you enjoy my content! :-)
I just got a high white California king male beautiful snake
Wow....cute video...cute snake.....cute you......
Californiun king shnak
Would be nice to see a more naturalistic terrarium
Are California King snakes illegal to own in GA?
Psychotic Kitsune I don't think so, but check your local Game and Fish laws on keeping animals.
No but corn snakes are...you can own a rattlesnake in GA but not a corn snake? Crazy laws.
What size rodents does she eat?
semi adult mice or rats the same size :-)
were do you come from?
Denmark :-)
Jossers Jungle cool,i love your ascent
I found it 😆❤
I Love your Videos and i Love snakes sadly my parents are afraid of them so i m Not Able 2 get a petsnake
Hi Jan! Thank you so much, I'm really glad you like them! You know, my parents wouldn't allow me a snake as well, so I didn't get my first until I moved out of the house. I did however make a video specificly for parents to watch. It's called "WHY I SHOULD GET A BALL PYTHON". I know it has helped others convince their parents, maybe it can help you as well? :-)
Jossers Jungle thx for the tip i will have a Look at it Right away and it s Impresive that u answered my comment Right away! Thx for that😁
Of'course! I'm here to help! Let me know if the video works! Fingers crossed! :-)
Are you still actively replying to comments? If so I was wondering if you would have any advice on trying to convince my mom to not be as scared of snakes lol
I'm trying to answer as many as possible :-) I did a video called "Afraid of snakes?" you could start by having her watch that :-)
Jossers Jungle just saw this, thank you! When she returns from a business trip I’ll be talking to her about it
My king snake is 4 feet long
You know....in Finland, giving a alive (example) mouse to snake is against the law. So you need to hope your snake is going to eat frozen food.
I want to marry you and your jungle
your king is female ya? male king act like a bit*h on breeding season, some snake only eat the small size ( fuzzy or pinkie size ) and the other refuse to eat at all. anyway i finally found an very interesting animal keeper channel without a lot of gimmick and click bait, hope you get a lot of subs ahead.
Is dead pray and live pray like vegan and none vegan? I know that its all meat either way but evry video I see it basically sounds like vegan and none vegan. Lmao
How old are you then? You don’t look much older than that!!!
I'm 27 :-)
