Ichabod

About Ichabod

Rattle Rescue’s first ambassador; Ichabod is a California King Snake.  Ichabod is about four feet long.  Ichabod was gifted to the ambassador program from someone who could no longer care for him.


Ichabod was never given larger, size appropriate prey when he was young, so he only eats small mice.  A snake typical for Ichabod's size should be eating rat-sized meals, but Ichabod doesn't know how or refuses to eat food this size, opting for several small sub-adult mice for his meal.

Species Status

STABLE (not threatened or endangered)

Species Information

Ichabod is a California King Snake - Lampropeltis californiae.


Thes snakes are found pretty much everywhere in California with a few exceptions such as the far northeast corner of the state.
