Escape attempt this morning.

My black milk has gotten pretty big and I caught her this morning in the lip of the lid of her container almost enough for her to escape. I caught her at it again when I got back from work. I was impressed since the containers have a locking lid that is hard to get a good gap without squishing/hurting my fingers.

Too bad for her that I had already ordered an ap cage for her and it only needed the top slapped on after curing for the last week





And of course buried after two minutes never to be seen again...she spends all her time buried....unless she's trying to escape lol

Nice! Can't wait to get a black milk, I love these guys. How big would you say she is now?

Re: Escape attempt this morning.

Hmm not sure. She has been getting more girth lately rather than length. Maybe 5ft right now. She will probably be my only milk unless I grap a hypo tangerine but I have so many beauty snake plans that I can't be quite as crazy with getting random snakes anymore haha

Re: Escape attempt this morning.

I know what you mean. Last couple of years I went crazy, now I have to plan ahead and decide what I want most and not fall for those impulse buys unless it's part of the plan. Haha. But a black milk is a sure thing. I've wanted one from the beginning, just took me forever to find one! Nice cages too! Love the white.

Re: Escape attempt this morning.

Okay so she was stretched out across the front so more like 4ft! I'm really bad at guessing the size...

She is really nice and her color change has been interesting to watch. She still has some trace of the white bands and a red tinge.

I like the white a lot too! I wasn't sure about the color since i had never seen one in person but i like them and ill keep with the white now.

She has already taken to rearranging the shavings lol

Re: Escape attempt this morning.

Haha, me too. Thank God for SerpWidgets or I'd never know how long my snakes were.
So she's probably got some growing left to do!
