Variable King Snakes would do best in a 36x24x18 (or bigger) enclosure with a terrestrial set up! They will explore and climb branches during the daytime. Being a diurnal species, King Snakes will utilize low percentage UVB if offered to them. We also encourage some foliage to be in the enclosure as they come from open hillsides and rocky grassland areas.

Note: Actual available animal may vary from photo. Remember to be aware of your local area pet bylaws.
