pueblan / Sinaloan look alike ???

We presently have a female Sinaloan milksnake.

We're trying to find her a mate for the coming season.

I saw this snake advertised as a Pueblan milksnake on a general classified add website.

Is it a mistake ? or is there some Pueblan that look exactly like Sinaloans ?

Here's our female Sinaloan



And here's the pic of the "Pueblan"

The first pic looks to be pueblan because the sock head pattern. I wouldnt say for sure what it is because I just dont know but it looks very much pueblan to me but the body has some non pueblan features.

Both are Sins. Sins and Pueblans do NOT look even remotely alike. There are WAY mroe similar milks than those two.

Hum !

I'm pretty sure mine in a Sinaloan, but there's allways a doubt.
I got that in a petstore allmost 3 years ago, when we were just beginning.

I just looked up pics of Nelsonis... They look alot like Sinis...

What's the sure way to tell them appart ?

I did remember there was a king or milk that did look alot like Sinaloans, I just didn't remember wich one, so when I saw the ad stating a "pueblan" I started wondering.

Thanks for the answers guys.

lol! I was just kiddin about yours being a nelsoni. Chances are yours are sini's. Most of the time it's sini's being passed off as nelson's, not the other way round. Didn't mean to ruffle your feathers.

Those are definitely both Sinaloans, and gorgeous ones at that.
