Common questions

Are there Pueblan morphs?

Yes. Albino, anerythristic and other color forms exist, and several are recessive, so ask for records behind any het claim.

Can it live with another snake?

No. Milk snakes eat other snakes, so house and feed each one alone.

What health records should I ask for?

Ask for a clear fecal and a negative crypto PCR, and a feeding log showing several meals on frozen-thawed pinkies or mice. A hatch record with the parents and clutch date confirms captive breeding.
