Calmest Milk for a Beginner

toiletoctopus Sep 18, 2006 02:36 AM

I was wondering what the calmest, and best choice milk choice for a beginner would be. Any help would be grateful appreciated.

A Nelson's or a Sinaloan would be a good choice, as would a Gaigae...

I'd go with a black milk. They are very calm and rarely musk. They also thrive at room temps.

I think the Mexican Milksnake is the calmest of the non-giant milks. Black Milksnakes are also fairly docile, but get a lot larger.

Andean Milk. They can get large but they are docile as a baby. never been bit by one, and no temp requirements plus they are easy to breed. Great snake!
