I too am fairly new to MILK snakes and learned a lot about them from the many great people on this site. From my experience, the hypo pueblans are beautiful animals



which lighten up with age. Wen they are young, as the one pictured, the do tend to be very flighty and must alot, I'd say I got this one down to about 50% of the times handled, but when we first got him it was about 100%.

As mentioned the Black milks do turn jet black as adults



and they are great "lap" animals. The pair I have are literally dog tame even though I do try to keep our golden retreiver away from them.



Both are great animals IMO.
