What is a "Mexican black milksnake"? The black milksnake (Lampropeltis triangulum gaigeae) does not occur in Mexico, it’s from the Costa Rica mountains and the western parts of Panama, so this snake you are getting must be a melanistic Mexican milksnake (Lampropeltis triangulum annulata).

my hondurans are eating machines,by that they will start to come out of the cages to get the rat and I have seen them slam a juvie rats alive against the wall to kill it,but one thing I found out about my snakes,I feed them between 7 to 15 days now the adults,and my hatchlings are now about 24 inches and are Minny eating machines I feed them about every 5 to 7 days now.I know all of my snakes and I watch for signs that tell me if they want food or not.Most of all before feeding I move the top and if they look out and start out a little,they are ready and I keep track of sheddings if it is close I check them for color change.I found out also never feed them on the same day,if you feed it on the 7th day wait a couple of days the next time go 10 days later,make sure they have digested their food and make them wait,they will not starve,for I have found out thru personal experience they can go 2 months with out food or water,for I lost two of them and found them 2 months later and right now I have a ball python that has stopped eating,he’ll not eat for about 5 months,that will get under your skin.Since I breed rats now I only feed pre-killed f/t. rats to my snakes,but live or f/t to my little ones,they get pinkie rats.I am looking to sell a ghost,check your messages
