Keven, you might be looking in the wrong areas or having some very bad luck because striped kings are very common in a lot of areas in San Diego Co. Some populations can be as high as 80 percent according to Brian Hubbs book on common kingsnakes. I also know a few guys that herp from Carlsbad to Borrego desert and they find stripers everywhere but they are rare in the desert. They are way common in Carlsbad. I don't mean to correct you or anything, I just wanted to let you know. Also, habitat can also be a factor when looking for striped kings.
