I dont want to be rude or anything but milks can be a bad choose for your first snake besides a few species. Ive read your post in the kids and herps forum and the milks you listed can be very hard to get eating, not all but some are. Im not telling you not to get one but i am warning you that there is a chance it may not eat for you.

Ive seen a few of the Halloweens, i dont like them very much, thats just my opinion. I like to know the locality of the snakes.

Locality would mean where there from???
Or where they were produced??
Wild snakes or breed snakes?
or does this mean you dont like morphs?

Cameron,

The locality of the "halloween" Pueblan Milk Snake is not a difficult thing to find out...

Every Pueblan Milk in captivity came from several specimens caught in the same area in Mexico. I think only about a dozen specimens were collected.

Those specimens made up ALL of the Pueblan Milks you see in captivity today, INCLUDING the halloweens. From line breeding, breeding aberrant specimens in, the halloweens were created.

Oh im sorry about that lol. For some reason i thought the Halloweens were hybrids. I must have been thinking of another snake when i think the Halloweens. Sorry about that everyone.

I feel like a dumb a** now.

Fantastic looking snake. I have heard super nervous even for a milk , hides non stop .
Whats your take on that ? I have eyed them as fantastic looking as that yours .
I am used to kings that you see atleast every other day "patrolling" their tank or easy to handle,feed snakes thus havent gotten a pueblan yet but the Halloweens are my favorite.
