Well, as Steve mentioned already, most of the milksnakes(triangulum) are generally pretty nervous, ESPECIALLY young ones, although there are just a few that are generally a little less so, such as the Mexican Milk. Some of the slightly smaller common Kingsnakes(getulus) such as the Mexican Black King(MBK) might be what you are looking for. They generally have a good calm disposition, eat VERY well, and are usually very calm when being handled. Of course as in all animals, there can be exceptions. I've had fabulous experience with MBK's in the past.


best regards, ~Doug
