Color is generally tan, olive-green or black with faint pale yellow cross bands, the females lay around 50 eggs in a constructed nest where they will guard and incubate them faithfully for 60 to 80 days, the young are called Hatchlings and about 1.5 ft. (50cm ) long at birth, the King cobra is very fast and agile with an average lifespan of about 20 years.
Although not the most toxic of poisonous snakes a king cobra can kill an elephant with one bite, the king cobra tracks by site and smell then kills it's prey by striking and injecting it with venom and swallowing it whole, it's preferred diet is mainly other venomous and non-venomous snakes but includes small reptiles, birds and amphibians as well.

cobras do not have teeth they have fangs (sometimes they are poisonous)
*facepalm* ALL snakes have teeth, some have teeth AND fangs. NO snake has just fangs. And ALL cobras are venomous (you do not mean poisonous)! They are all Elapids (i.e. they are proteroglyphous). There's also opisthoglyphous (rear-fanged). This fits many Colubrids, such as the Boomslang, the Parrot snake, the Lyre snake, and MANY more. And there's solenoglyphous (vipers' delivery system) as well as aglyphous-no fangs (pythons, most colubrids, boids, etc.).
What does it mean when three snakes crawl away from you in your dream?
It depends on what type of snakes you are seeing in the dream. Pythons, Adders, Cobras and Boas all come with different meaning. However, (if it helps any) if the snakes are crawling away from you in the dream it means the problem/issues that first caused them to appear is dwindling.
Anything moving away from you in a dream indicates predator 'retreat'. In other words, danger is averted.
