Some Rare Milks

[TremTricolors]

Here are some of my Lampropeltis triangulum conanti, otherwise known as the Conant's Milksnake. The original animals were collected by Peter Vise, in Acapulco, MX. There is at least one other line available in the hobby and a single male from Chilpancingo, MX. Great subspecies to work. Within three to four years they will be roughly 36" and in six years could reach 48". Thanks For looking.

This is the exception to what is normally seen in the hobby. I have traced back plenty of the parental lineage of the snakes I have in my collection. Some parental lineage dates back as early as the 1970's. These lines have been untainted as well. I wish everyone would keep great collection data as it would make it easier to trace back since there has been many hybrids produced that simply look like pure.

I have heard the Morelia World is worse than colubrids, good luck it can take some time to trace it back and a lot lead to dead ends or questionable sources.

Thanks!

Pete, they really are not rare, if compared to dixoni and smithi. They just are not as popular as, let's say Pueblans or Hondurans. They do have a different look to them. I really like the pitch black heads on them, also.
