Been thinking of getting some Jalisco milks. How is their temperament/personality? Hyper, calm, etc? I know these things can very from snakes to snake.

I would assume that the true arcifera(Lake Chapala area) are basically like most Sinaloan's, or nelsoni, etc...in temperament. And like you mentioned, there can be a fair bit of difference from individual to individual as well.
Shannon and a few other's have these, so maybe they can chime in and give you their personal experience with them.

If you are talking about the real deal arcifera (Lake Chapala milks) then NO. They hatch very small, are hard to get going and never like to be handled.
Now, if you are talking about what we used to consider "jalisco milks" in the hobby then you are talking about the Tapalpa Jalisco Ruthveni.And yes, they are very easy to get going,very robust and like to be handled.

Thanks Shannon! I was talking about the real deal arcifera from Lake Chapala. Do they mellow out with age.......LOL!

Nope, they are very shy and like to hide and don't take well to handling.
