I don't see that you have anything to worry about except that you should provide a small container with moist sphagnum, paper towels or a sponge so that the snake can retreat to this to avoid dehydration. Baby milks are susceptible to dehydration and I have had a few who refused food and/or regurged until I gave them a "humidity box."

My pueblans love aspen and other burrowing substrates and preferred them to hides. As they are older, I switched to newspaper, and they burrow under that too rather than use their hides (most of the time).

My first milk was a pueblan about the same size as yours. She has been a voracious eater almost constantly and at 18 months old she's around 30" long and bigger around than my thumb.

Good luck. And since yours is the prettyest one in the world, we're gonna need to see some pics.



Here is my first pueb the day after I got her.
