My new milk snake

I got a new milk snake today I rescued her from someone who was unable to care for her anymore and was not keeping her in a proper set up. I was told it was a she and a pueblan 5-6 months old, but of course I'm not sure if they were 100% correct about gender and locale. She's in a little 18x18x12 right now with plenty of room until she gets bigger of course.
I'm going to name her Daphne by the way 😊.

Re: My new milk snake

Looks like a Nelson's to me. Age might be accurate, though.

Real cutie you got there! I'm sure you'll enjoy her

Re: My new milk snake

I think is a Nelson's too. Pueblan's rings are usually almost the same size. Beautiful snake dude, I'm glad she found a nice new home.

Re: My new milk snake

Thanks guys, and yeah I wasn't convinced it was a pueblan either, but wasn't sure if they looked like that while they were still young or something as I am still new to these kind of snakes. That's why I mentioned it though so that you guys could help figure it out

Re: My new milk snake

Cool, I was at petsmart the other day and almost convinced the employee their albino nelson's was a corn snake (they were on sale for 20 bucks and the sign was in the wrong spot. The employee didn't know but the manager ended up walking over (who knew herps) and corrected the issue. The milk snake was 110 bucks lol.

I think it is Pueblan but mine might be a mix of Pueblan and Nelsons
