Breeding Pueblan Milks

tai_pan1 · 06-16-04, 08:40 AM

Does anyone know what a good weight to breed Pueblans is? I know on corns it's 300 grams. I have a pair of Apricots and thought about trying to breed them next year. Unfortunately, Kathy Love doesn't have a book on Milks. LOL.

Thanks for any help.

300g for a female corn seems REALLY small to me. I would go more for 450g-500g.

As for Pueblans, they are a pretty small snake. 300g might be about right for a first time breeding female. The Milksnake book by Robert Applegate has tons of breeding records with the female's weight being recorded. It's also a handy book to have around for other reasons.... best Lampro book I've read... IMO

300-400 grams is idea. I have a care sheet on pueblans on my web site if you have any questions.
