Re: Black Milk

So these guys turn all black? That would suck because I love the Coral look alike pattern and wanted to get one of these after I get our Cali King. :/

Yeah they turn black', but as far as temperament, they are imo; one of the most docIle snakes around. And great eaters as well.He is my favorite snake in my small collection. Plus they like it cool.I'm hoping he grows past the 6 foot mark but tI'm will tell.

Re: Black Milk

Do any breeds of Milk or Corns keep this color pattern through their whole lifetime?

Yeah all of the milks and corns keep their patterns. The colors may lighten or darken depending on species genetics.The black milk is the only one that I know of that changes.

Have you looked at the Honduran Milk Snakes or Nelsons Milk snakes? They come in that color scheme.
