My favorite L.triangulum would have to be L.t.sinaloae. or the Sinaloan Milksnake.

Pro’s – Sinaloan’s usually are great feeders from the start, and are very calm for a milksnake. They usually don’t musk or bite or become very flighty like a Pueblan that needs regular handling to calm down. If you are into a mid-sized milksnake (48” max)this is a great choice. The usually are some of the brightest in their natural phenotypes with large red bands.

Con’s – Not many con’s that I can find. It is real hard to find a pure L.t.sinaloae, most have been bred into nelsoni when the amelanistic gene became available. Some of the adults do darken with age so the bright colors could become dull later. This is also the case with most milksnake species.

Morph’s – Hypoerythristic and aberrant pattern.
