I just looked through the Classifieds and Clay Davenport is selling two 05' Males. The description is the parents are soid black 7' animals. I don't have any experience with him but thought you might want to check it out.

High Sierra might be a good spot to check (haven't dealt with him personally) Jim Seargent from Split Rock reptiles has some nice looking animals.Steve Emmerick(Napa Valley) and Don Soderberg (South Mountain)(Barker animals)are nice folks I've dealt with and gotten nice BMs from.

Try not to let it get you too down. Most animals live a long time these days since we have a better undrstanding of things. But these things are sometimes going happen to all of us.The Black Milks are definitely a worthwhile project to stick with and like you pointed out, they can get to be "buddies" not just specimens in a collection.
