A friend of mine caught this snake as a hatchling in August of 2003. He is turning into a real pretty snake...

Very nice contrast of color with the stark white bands against black borders and amber tones. The white is unusually bright. Nice snake Peter.

Peter,
I'm kicking myself for not trying to get that snake from you last year...

Very nice!!!

Mike - They usually do not look this good. He is only two years old and I hope that his color does not fade to badly.

I am still in touch with the guy who found this one - in his basement. He called me about a black rat hatchling a week or so ago - and he knows to call me if he finds another eastern milk... Next one (if it is male) is yours buddy.

Peter,

I guess females are rare for you to obtain as well?

I've been trying to get a female for a while now with no luck.

... I have a female and I know somebody with a couple more who has offered to give them to me.

However, I am not interested in these snakes as much as my Eastern Kings so I will just keep one pair.

I have seen a few E milks and all drab looking they were wild . That one is pretty looks like captive bred bred for color.
I imagine very nervous as most wild E kings are?
