Quite frankly, I think a eastern milk snake sub-forum would be a waste of space. Eastern milks are awesome and all, but there are maybe less than 15 members currently that would even go there. Nice eastern there, female? Nice aberrant pattern on it too, how big is it?

she is about 30" long and 4 years old. She is a pig and always looking to eat something. Today she ate two hoppers.

Your adult female is at a length where she is sexually mature, I hope you breed her at one point, her pattern is awesome and the neonates would look spectacular. I'm gonna have to measure my adult male, I think he's around 24", but he eats alot as well, lol which I didn't even know until I offered him food. The night that I found him in my house, January 19th, he ate 2 pinkies, and on the 21st, he ate 3. I'm contemplating whether or not I should brumate him, as I can't find anyone willing to loan a female.

Funny, I was hoping someone would loan me a nice looking male! LOL.
Yeah, I do plan to breed her once I land a nice male. Shes too nice looking not to breed.
I got her as part of a proven pair, but the pair were siblings. So I gave the male to a friend and will get a male in return from my friend once its bigger. Her easterns are hatchlings. Too bad they take so long to grow up.

I agree,a subforum devoted to just one subspecies probably wouldn't be used very much.I would like to see a subforum for all the native US subspecies though.I like alot of the south of the border milks,but the native ones are my favorites.We get fewer posts about native milks,so they tend to get buried quickly by posts about the more popular mexican and central american subspecies.There have been alot more posts on easterns here lately,used to hardly ever see any on this forum.I gotta get me another digital camera soon,so I can post new pics of my syspilas and their offspring.All I have are a bunch of old crappy pics I put on the photo gallery a couple years ago that are still there.Here is a old pic of my pair of orange Madison Co,AL red milks.I had a bunch of pics of normal red ones from that locality,but the hard drive they were on got fried.

Yeah, red milks are awesome too. Maybe you could hook me up with a hatchling.

She's looking nice Dave! How nice it must be to have both hands free when getting your pictures taken LOL...
All you'll ever see in my photos is my Left Hand since my Right Hand is always holding the Camera!
As for the sub forums, I haven't decided yet if I like them or not... Just that much more clicking. I already check out so many of the main forums: Milk, King, Water, Garter, Carpet Python, Corn, Ball Python, Ratsnake, Hognose, Sand Boa, Leo, Mountain Dragon, Bearded Dragon, Iggy, Ferrets, and Rats. Don't know if I have time for subs on all of those too! If they did make one then I'd just bookmark that since the only Milks I have are Easterns anyways.
