In nature, king snakes can be a variety of colors, such as the all-black Mexican king snake and the black-and-white striped/banded king snake commonly found in america. In captivity, there are many more colors not found in nature. One variation, the Albino kingsnake, is very rare in the wild because a) the genetic combination necessary for this coloring is rare by itself and b) albino kingsnakes have poor vision and cannot camoflouge very well and are, therefore, killed by predators faster than the average kingsnake. The albino kingsnake is very common as a pet because of its beautiful coloring. I, myself, have an albino kingsnake, and they truly are beautiful!
