Hi folks! Very excited to add this pair to my modest collection of snakes. I'm a ball python girl at heart, but the colubrids have been worming their way into my heart. Started with a striped albino cali king last year (who I absolutely adore), and the latest additions arrived at my friend Deborah Stewart's house today (so I wouldn't have to take off work today), courtesy of Kara Glasgow.



I decided a month or two back that I would like to have a jet black snake, and was trying to decide between a MBK or a Black Milk. I chose the Black Milks because of their eventual size, their ease of care, their reported temperment (although Kara warned me that they have the feeding response of a retic! LOL) and the fact that they are reported to be a richer black than the MBK's.



Before I post pictures, one thing I've found in my research is that caresheets on these guys are VERY generic, if you can find them at all. Do any of you know of any good Lampropeltis Triangulum Gaigeae specific caresheets that you can direct me to?



Here they are - and yes, I tend to name all my snakes!



This is the little girl, Onyx - and she has a bit of stuck shed.









This is the little boy, Jett - and Deb says he's a wannabe rattlesnake.







Don't know if I'll ever breed these guys, but got a pair "just in case" I decide to down the road. For now, they're just really sweet additions to my personal collection! Thanks Kara!
