Eastern Milksnakes!!!!

ballpython13 Aug 11, 2007 10:12 PM

Hi, I just wanted to say up at my friends house has a barn she said there were some big snakes in there so I went up and to my surprise I found 2 milksnakes together one is 3 foot and the other is 34 inches, they just both ate for me about 2 days ago only after 4 days having them they took the pinkies right from my hands. and yesterday I went back up to that barn and found a 15 inche eastern milk and a 30 inche eastern milk. I'm going to try to feed them tomorrow. I hope to try to breed the 2 largest ones this coming spring the big one is a female and the 34 inche is a male. I have hatched 2 clutchs in two years that I caught and they laid eggs but the moms to the clutches would not eat for me so I let them go. I'll try to get pics Wensday.

the ones that don't eat let them go where you found them and don't tell anyone where the barn is and remember that those milks are escape artists.
