 Want a milk snake

Hey. I’m not usually on this forum, but I want to get another snake and I think I can convince my parents. There’s a reptile show coming next weekend, and I plan on going and getting a snake there. I already have a corn snake, and I am pretty sure that my next snake will be a milk snake. I really like the honduran milk snake, but I’ve heard that they get kind of big. Can someone post some pics of their honduran milk snake, and tell me how big he/she is? I would like a snake that is around 4-5 feet, like my corn snake. Also, I have my corn in a 50-gallon tank. Would another 50-gallon be big enough for a honduran? Thanks!

I’m never on this forum, but I really love red tail boas and want to get one for myself. I’d have to talk to my parents, of course, but can anyone show me some pics of their RTBs? I really love albinos, but would they be expensive? Thanks!

Well I read this over on the Red-Tail Boa forum too...

What do you really want? Because you can’t really compare a Milksnake to a Red-Tail Boa!

I originally wanted a RTB, but my parents said that they won’t let me get a snake that big. So I asked them about a milk snake, and they said that would probably be okay. Yeah, sorry if that was confusing.

No problem. I just wanted to know what you were really leaning toward so I knew which one to reply to.

Did you have a specific Milk Snake in mind?

Hondurans (4’ - 6’), Sinaloans (3.5’ - 5’) and Pueblans (3’ - 3.5’) are all nice.

I have a pair of Pueblans but will be adding a pair of Hondurans in the near future (along with a couple of pairs of Kings).

I really like the hondurans. Do you think one of them would fit in a fifty gallon tank? That’s what my corn snake is in, and another tank of that size wouldn’t be hard to put in my room. Also, the females usually get bigger than the males, right?

Sorry, guys. I saw a corn snake at the reptile show that I liked. Got him instead.
