Scientific Name: Lampropeltis Getula Brooksi Brooks kingsnake belongs to colubridae family. A low UVB bulb should be provided along with guards to prevent any accidental damage to the fixture or burns to the snake. Kingsnakes are members of the genus Lampropeltis. Kingsnakes in wet climates also eat turtle eggs and frogs, according to the Smithsonian National Zoological Park. Their mating time depends on the climate, with snakes in warmer climates mating earlier in the spring and snakes in colder climates waiting until late spring or summer.
