    Book recommendation on sinaloan milks?

    Hi,

    I am being seriously tempted by these again.

    I managed to buy this book second hand on ebay for £2.49 but wondered if there were any better/ more specific books out there I should be looking at?

    I have found somewhere that has 08 babies available but I have never kept these as youngsters so would also like to ask how small they might be?

    Trying to judge what housing I would need to set up rather than getting a nasty surprise when they arrived.

    That covers all the basics. I've been playing with them for a looooong time and they're very cool snakes. A tad smaller than a calking and occasionally tough to get onto pinks but overall not a problem species. I'd say 8 out of 10 of mine eat pinks by their second try and I don't ever feed lizards so they all eventually switch.

    Huge is 4 ft average is about 3-31/2.

    I'd recommend them.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Hi,

    I looked after a friends for a couple of years while he partied in new Orleans and totally fell it love with it - but that was an adult when I got it so all feeding issues etc were solved.

    The ones I saw for sale were marked as 08's on the website but there is nothing in the pictures for size reference so they could be worms or a foot and a half for all I can tell.

    I'd hope they would already be on mice though as Scotland is a bit short on rubbing lizards in March.

    I already have this book which he gave me at the time - just wondering if the information on how to keep them has changed much since these books were printed.
