I was wondering what everyones experiences with cal kings are?.. I have never had or seen a nice one lol. I had a striped albino cal years back, gorgous snake but man did she hate me lol. I also held many cal kings and they all like to bite lol. But everytime a post or something about someone wanting to get a cal king comes up and I say that they are generally more nippy then corns, a bunch of people say thats not true and they have ones as nice as corns lol.. I actually have a cal king coming next week, maybe this one will actually be nice lol..

I've had a cal king for the past 2 months now and it has not once tried to bite. It's a little flighty but otherwise a good-natured animal.

My Cal King, Nigel, was a little shit for the first two years. He never bit me, but he musked and struck at me with a closed mouth all the time. I got to the point that whenever I held him I would put a paper towel under him so when he finished musking me I could just throw that away. LOL. Now days he's a pleasure. He doesn't strike or musk anymore. He's calm when I hold him. And he's always cruising around his cage. He's the only snake I have in the living room, because he's such a great display snake. I wouldn't trade him for the world. :)

Jason .................... it's just you. I kid I kid!
I have handled some wicken little Cal Kings and then some as sweet as pie. It honestly could be just you. What I mean by that is the vibe you may be giving off of fear. :noidea:

Not that they really can't see, but there is strong evidence that they are more sensitive to bright light.
