Re: Milk snake vs corn snake what's the difference

L. g. nigrita can grow to over 5 feet. Much like desert and California kings.

Re: Milk snake vs corn snake what's the difference

There is a lot of variation in both species. Some Corns get really big like 5 feet, while others rarely get over 3 1/2 feet. Milks do have the biggest variation, as some remain under 3 feet, and some get to 6 feet or better. I like them both. Oh, not all milks are super jumpy. Some tend to calm down much faster than others. Sinaloans, and Nelsons are fairly calm, after a short time of handling, and they remain calm. Some Corns can also be pure evil, lol. Yet most are very mild tempered, and tame.

Re: Milk snake vs corn snake what's the difference

Ball pythons are more "lap snakes" because they tend to chill rather than explore around all the time. That doesn't mean that they won't though. The average range for length is between 3-5 feet, but some will exceed that. One of my males is over 4 feet and he's almost 2 years old, while my 2 year old female is not quite 4 feet. (She might not even reach that). All snakes vary on "personality" overall, but Ball Pythons are an awesome choice Plus they are easy to take care of and with handling they are quite docile.

I remember seeing a Ball Python, about 6 feet. They can get large, but they add more bulk, than length.
