Beautiful milks some of the best milk attributes combined in to one snake. I love the wide bands on sinaloans and love the color on this locality as well as the unique red heads, I guess Im a sucker for red heads, probably has to do with my deep love for syspila. As always great stuff Dave!

Dniles Aug 23, 2012 08:05 PM

Thanks Brandon. I think you said it well - lots of many great milk snake traits rolled up into one. I am a sucker for a red snake...in case you haven't noticed by now! lol

Thanks. I think that's a characteristic of this line that often gets overlooked due to the brightness of the red but the triads on these guys are very very thin which makes for a cool looking animal.

If you keep posting animals like that, everyone else will be afraid to show their animals. I'm serious!

Dave, Absolutely beautifull, stunning Sinaloan milksnakes, congrats on the best cb sinaloans I have thus seen.....John

Drdan Aug 25, 2012 09:10 AM

I always enjoy viewing your spectacular Cosala Sinaloans. They are extraordinary animals in that they have wonderful coloration, grow to a hardy size, and have great dispositions. Help them to find their way over to Europe so I can get some!!!

Dniles Aug 27, 2012 02:16 PM

Still getting mouse tails!!
