Avg Size of adult Nelson's milksnake?

liquidleaf Jan 19, 2005 01:16 PM

I see that sinaloans get to be up to 6 ft, but how large to Nelson's milks get? Just wondering, I'm a boa person but think albino Nelson's are beautiful. Thanks!

Adult Nelson's are commonly 36-42 inches long.
Sinaloans don't get to six feet.
Their average length is the same as Nelson's.
At one time Sinaloans and Nelson's were
considered to be the same subspecies.

Some bloodlines of sinaloae, particulary Cosala stock reach lenghts of 56" plus. But you are right, they don't reach the 6' mark..
