Favorite Milk SNake
I am partial to the Pueblan Milk Snake as it was my first but i think i also lean toward the Nelsons Milk Snake Albino Strain.
Please tell us your fav if it is not listed.

My 1.3 group of yearling black milks are quickly becoming the favorite group out of all the snakes I keep. They are almost all black now and they are simply an awesome ssp. to keep. I would highly reccomend them to anyone interested in a fairly rare milk snake.

Honduran milk snake is my favorite, because it was my first snake I've become very partial to her out of the other 9 varieties that we have.

Hondurans all the way - they have everything I am looking for - impressive size, great temperment and enough color morphs to keep the genetics and breeding interesting.

Andean Milksnakes are my favourite, But Black Milks are a close second.

With all the genetic combinations coupled with those flashy colors, gotta be hondurans all the way...

Easterns suck! They might be the nominate but yuck...Double t's have no color...might as well be water snakes, or big DeKays...LOL
(just to bug Jeff & Katt)
I like the bright tacky southern subspecies... Hondurensis,abnorma, Campbelli, Sinaloae/nelsoni, even annulata I still breed and just can't get rid of.
Black milks are new to me and interesting, I'm enjoying their good temperment... Now if campbelli behaved like gaigeae.... that would be my all time fav.
I'm sure some moron will be crossing them eventually of course that will probably backfire and just make ugly spastic Blackbelli

Hondurans all the way. They have a great temperament, eat well, look great and grow big. Easy to care for if you know the basics of reptile care.

I've been a tricolor fan from back when nobody in Canada had any.... I've kept and bred many and like most of the southern forms...
but how can you really beat Hypo hondurans..
I have the albinos too,(mary has a screamer) but man Hypos I can look at all day..heres one of mine, from my old friend Steve Hammack.
When it comes to keeping tris, they gotta hurt your eyes, !
