Not sure if I'd call this guy perfect but he's got the three qualities I like in milks I keep: Size (he is nearly 6 feet), awesome eater (he chows on small rats whenever I put them in his cage) and he is very calm to hold.

This is a six-year-old Andean milk. He weighs just shy of 1,400 grams. He's a traditional tri-color variety with the moderate black tipping you see in Andeans. A very blunt nose on him gives him a bulldog appearence in my mind. Excessively strong snake but not aggressive - unless you are holding a rat in your hand. He'll be breeding to a slightly more tangerine version of this species in either 2013 or more likely 2014.
