 MBK or Eastern Chain?

I went to a show recently and almost bought a MBK but did not because I am still not sure if I want an Eastern, which they did not happen to have any of, at least babies, they had a few large adults but I want to raise em up myself. Are there really any differences in temperament between the two? Is there a major size difference between the two when full grown? Thanks for any insight..

kings for the most part are pretty laid back. i have two easterns that are very sweet, and I have one that is mean as all get out. easterns do tend to be on the larger side of the l.g. family along with florida kings. i’ve seen some nice sized MBKs though as well.

My MBK is pretty fiesty. When she was smaller she was pretty snappy and stuff but she’s calmed down a lot with regular handling and such. She still has her moods but after being held for a minute or two she relaxes. I don’t know how that compares with an Eastern at all, my only other snake experience is with a Ball Python.
