Wow! What a difference.
Your snake is really pretty after the shed.
My milk doesn’t change that much before and after a shed...

your very right,they are beautiful,I have caught many a eastern around her and moved them in to a wooded area,because people here have mistaken them for a rattlesnake and killed them.Yes a rattlesnake. for if you don’t educate people on snakes,all you get is a "GOOD SNAKE IS A DEAD SNAKE" story and you can’t believe how many snakes I have seen dead because of that theory

I caught one this past year that was huge, it had to be over 4 ft, and it was fat around, like if i put my index finger and pointer finger in a circle just touching at the tips, maybe an inch and a half or a little smaller around

Eastern milks don’t really look like the "standard" milks people are used to. Most people just think of the bright banded ones when they think of milk snakes.

Not to be annoying or anything, but I must say that I disagree with what type of bedding you are using. I know that people have said to use it, but it is not very good for the snake. If I were you, I would use repti-bark. It looks nice, and is better for the snake.
