Misty, that looks like a Honduran milk. "Tangerine" is not a type of milk, but is a color phase of several different types of milksnakes. And you're correct that the Honduran in your picture is a tangerine color phase.

hey, thanks for the response. i knew it was honduran. I guess I should have said "identify this color phase". lol
I have a few milks, but am more a corn, king person. I have an older tangerine, but it's coloring was a bit different, so wanted to make sure.
thanks again!

You're welcome, Misty. Good luck with getting those tangerine Hondurans you have to breed. The babies should have some variation in color as well, depending on the lineage of the pair you have.

Always makes it interesting when little heads start poking out of eggs

Could also be L.t. polyzona (Guatemalan). Looks similiar to the one Shannon posted above w/ Terryd's awesome Honduran pics.
