Species Spotlight- Black Milk Snakes 

I bought my Black milk snake youngling about a month before this video came out. I love it. I also have a larger tank for it as a 2ft long snake right now in a tank of 3ft by 1.5ft by 1.5ft(for baby/teen snake). Sometime in the next couple years i will upgrade to a 4ftx2ftx2ft tank when he gets close to an adult(parents were both 6ft long, so preparing for 6ft long snake in future). The big selling point for me was the heating requirements of room temp and he doesnt bite or musk. Just a lil flighty, but calms down after 1-2min of handling.

I've had a young pair for almost a year now. They're so awesome, and my female is my favorite individual snake i own, period. She's down for anything! Can sit in my hand curled up like a ball for hours if she had the opportunity to. Perfect TV companion lol.

My specialty snake! Very nice video. I, too, describe them as “Corn snake” like. I’m entering my 3rd year of breeding and they get snatched up quickly.

I love your t-shirt! (And, of course, your vast bank of information;) ) 🙏🏼

Rule of three's was remarkably interesting to learn along with everything else. I appreciate it when people voice their opinions as you did with the enclosure size and mountain species!!

Love my baby black milk! The color change process alone is so fascinating!

It’s on my list.

Let me know when you find one for 200 or less lol. I have 3 that I've bought over the last 4 years and not a single option was ever under 3 lol

Black Milk Snake…. Simply the Best! Get yourself one😎

Muy buen video el de hoy

I've never realy gotten into Milk Snakes before, just a few Kings. But damn, I want one now..

What type of substrate do you use?

I'm a Colorado native do you breed and sell snakes?? I'm in the market

Not credible reports of hitting 7'??? Alan Kardon of the San Antonio Zoo had them and Ive had 3 clear 7'.

$300-450 on morph market I bought a female from a breeder 3 months ago as a yearling for $350. And just purchased an unrelated pair of hatchlings for $600. Great video going to check your other videos out. Keep up the good work.

Lampropeltis means bright shield. Lampro = bright, peltis = shield. "Belly" isn't involved.
