Black milk snake

My baby black milk snake arrived yesterday :). I'm very excited to watch him grow and change color. He slithered up my arm when I opened the deli cup but was pretty freaked out when I reached for him (to prevent losing him). He seems friendly, just freaked out from the trip. This is actually my first colubrid, I've always been more of a boa and python person but this particular species caught my eye.

Sorry for the double post but I'm excited, he just had his first meal with me! :D He took two large f/t pinkies with no issues. I'll feed fuzzies next time. He has a great feeding response but awful aim :P.

Congratulations!! My own two females will arrive on the 26th - am so excited!

Yours looks terrific! So glad he (she??) ate for you! You got this baby from Isis Reptiles right? I had talked to them too. ;)
