Mexican Milks are great. They only get three feet and are very calm as adults. Sinaloans are good also, but most bloodlines exceed four feet in lenght. My bloodline reaches five feet. I hope this helps.

Yes this has helped a lot. I am going to look up Mex Milks now and learn about their care,etc. I have seen Sinolans and granted great looking snakes but to big for me.
I wanted "smallish" but colorful that would live with room to spare in a 36 inch enclosure.
Never thought of mex milks .
Thanks.

thanks, I decided that would be best snake. After looking them up I saw there is a New mex milk which i find has more color looks bit better.
Are they same snake type?

They are extremely close, but annulata have a more heavy, stout body and in my opinion are a bit more hardy. I might have a little prejudice since I specialize in annulata hahaha.
