Robin your going to love those gaigeae, really mellow, good feeding response, easy to care for, and the color change over the next few years is intriguing.
Doug's right, they come from a cooler climate and can be kept off heat as a general rule. When I first got mine the female as a neonate regurgitated her pink a few times, so I started putting about two inches of her small tub on heat tape, which she used after every feeding, and the regurgitating ended. I kept her on heat tape for a few months, then after that took her off the heat, and have never had a problem w/ her again.
If you want more information about Blackmilks come on over to the Milksnake forum, there are a number of people that keep gaigeae, and would be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Enjoy those Blacks.
