Six weeks is a pretty good "middle of the road" estimate.

Hey do you still have those nice red milks snakes? I remember a photo you posted a few years back of some pretty ones.
This is a photo of a red that layed just two days ago

No, I sold those to Nathan Wells. If you're in luck, he still has them - I agree, the male was really nice.
