That's pretty funny!..LOL! Yes, it does look VERY similar to a Cemophora coccinea!,....that specimen has exceptionally wide yellow rings, and like I said before, many milk folks I know(including myself) would love to have that individual.

Post that one on the "milksnake" forum, and see the good responses you'll get from others I know there! I know several people there that would give there left @#%$ for that specimen!

keep it in SMALL tight quarters(plastic shoe/storage box) with small low-profile hidebox inside. temps about 80-83, and don't let it see you walk around in front of the enclosure. Put it away from ANY movement whatsoever. Offer it a pink AT NIGHT just prior to going to bed, as they are VERY secretive and nocturnal. carefully place it at the notch opening of the hidebox before turing out the lights. Hopefully, when you wake up the next morning, it will be gone. But if it isn't, that can be very typical too, and you might have to later resort to Anole's, Anole scenting, Skinks, etc...


anyway, good luck!, ~Doug
