Eastern milk snake? What's it like keeping this species?

Very, very rewarding and enjoying.

They are born teeny tiny and some places make it illegal to keep.
They require you to split pinkie heads/bodies in half because a newborn pinkie is still to big for them. Which is a turnoff i assume to future would be L.t.t owners.

He's my best eater!
I hand feed him unless he's being a butt then The cupping method 100% works every single time.
He does not contstrict at all....sorta drags it around.

They are fast and have the Milksnake flightiness but after 3 seconds in your hands he's mello like a BP, very curious.
I give him 3" of aspen cause he loves to burrow and i give him stuff to climb on.

I've seen a high-white and a T-pos albino but the people who have them don't respond to me
I wouldn't mind getting deep with Eastern projects, just stinks they aren't popular like the others. Not because of money but having to get lucky to find a mutation in the wild.

Sorry for babbling, I love my Milksnake.

My--well, my husband's--hypo fire corn boy, Dante. :3 He's soooo bright, my camera can't handle pictures of him. xD



"Heeeeyy..." The schmooze hound. xD


Aaaand this is why they're called fire corns.... xD This one makes him look more yellow than he is, but... He overexposed my camera in the indirect sunlight. xD
