About This Item

The Pueblan Milk Snake (Lampropeltis triangulum gentilis) is a vibrant, non-venomous species known for its striking red, black, and white banding. Native to Mexico, it has a docile nature and is a popular pet due to its manageable size and easy care requirements. This hardy snake is perfect for both beginner and experienced reptile enthusiasts.

Intro to Milk Snakes

Milk Snakes are a popular pet snake because they come in a variety of localities and morphs which feature color and pattern mutations. These Snakes are found throughout the majority of the Americas. Milk Snakes are manageable for keepers of all experience levels as they max out at 48-72 inches depending on sex.

Milk Snake Care

Keeping Milk Snakes is fairly easy. You'll need a basking spot of 85-90°F, ambient temperature os 75-80°F, and 40-60% humidity. This can be easily achieved with an Under Tank Heater or Basking Lamp, a proper Water Bowl, and substrate (Aspen or Coco). Add a hide and decorate their enclosure as you please, decorations like foliage help with enrichment.

Breeders commonly keep their Milk Snakes in Rack Systems. Where they start off in "Pencil Bins" or 6 qt tubs, then graduating to 32 qt tubs. As pets, however, Milk snakes can do well in tanks or pvc enclosures. Baby Milk Snakes can start in a 10 gallon tank. Adults can live in a 40 gallon tank to a 4x2 enclosure.

Milk Snakes For Sale in the Pet Trade

Milk Snakes are bred readily in captivity as they are extremely prolific and can double clutch during their breeding season. You can find these common snakes at almost any reptile show or reptile shop for sale. To breed these, it helps for them to go through a brumation cycle of about 2-3 months at ~60°F. After brumation, it is important to get your animal back on food. Once these animals are re-established, you may begin pairing!

Sure! Caring for a **Milk Snake** (Lampropeltis triangulum) can be a rewarding experience. These snakes are known for their striking colors and relatively docile nature, making them popular pets. Below is a comprehensive guide on how to care for a **Milk Snake**, specifically focusing on the **Pueblan Milk Snake**, which is one of the most commonly kept subspecies.

### 1. **Habitat Setup**

- **Enclosure**: A glass terrarium or plastic reptile enclosure is ideal. For a single adult Pueblan Milk Snake, a 20-gallon tank is sufficient, but a larger 40-gallon tank is recommended for more space. Make sure the enclosure has a secure lid, as these snakes are excellent escape artists.

- **Substrate**: Use aspen shavings, cypress mulch, or coconut fiber as substrate. Avoid cedar or pine shavings, as they can be harmful to reptiles.

- **Hiding Spots**: Provide multiple hiding spots using commercial hides, rocks, or logs. Hides help reduce stress and give the snake a place to feel secure.

- **Temperature and Lighting**:

- **Basking Spot**: 80°F - 85°F (27°C - 29°C)

- **Cool End**: 70°F - 75°F (21°C - 24°C)

- **Nighttime Temperature**: 65°F - 70°F (18°C - 21°C)

- Use a heat mat or a heat lamp to achieve these temperatures. A thermometer should be used to monitor temperature.

- **Humidity**: Maintain humidity levels between 40% - 60%. You can mist the enclosure lightly and provide a water dish to help with humidity.

### 2. **Feeding**

- **Diet**: Pueblan Milk Snakes are carnivorous and primarily eat rodents. Hatchlings typically eat pinky mice, while adults can consume larger mice or even small rats, depending on their size.

- **Feeding Schedule**:

- **Hatchlings**: Feed every 5-7 days.

- **Juveniles**: Feed every 7-10 days.

- **Adults**: Feed every 10-14 days.

- **Feeding Method**: Offer prey that is appropriately sized (about the same diameter as the widest part of the snake’s body). It’s often best to feed pre-killed or frozen-thawed prey to prevent injury to your snake.

### 3. **Handling**

- **Temperament**: Pueblan Milk Snakes are generally calm and can become accustomed to handling. Start handling your snake slowly and gently, allowing it to acclimate to your presence.

- **Frequency**: It’s best to limit handling right after feeding (24-48 hours) to prevent stress and potential regurgitation.

- **Duration**: Short handling sessions (10-15 minutes) are ideal, gradually increasing as the snake becomes more comfortable.

### 4. **Health Care**

- **Regular Checks**: Monitor your snake for signs of illness, such as lethargy, lack of appetite, abnormal shedding, or any signs of respiratory issues (e.g., wheezing).

- **Shedding**: Pueblan Milk Snakes typically shed every 4-6 weeks. Ensure humidity is adequate to facilitate a smooth shedding process. If they have difficulty shedding, provide a humid hide or mist the enclosure.

- **Veterinary Care**: Regular check-ups with a reptile-savvy veterinarian are recommended, especially if you notice any health issues.

### 5. **Behavior and Enrichment**

- **Activity**: Milk Snakes are primarily nocturnal and enjoy climbing and exploring. Provide branches or climbing structures to keep your snake active and entertained.

- **Enrichment**: Change the layout of the enclosure occasionally to provide new environments for exploration.

### 6. **Breeding**

- **Breeding Season**: If you’re interested in breeding, Pueblan Milk Snakes typically breed in the spring. Introduce a male to a female after cooling them down (a process known as brumation) during the winter months.

- **Egg Laying**: After mating, females will lay eggs, which require specific incubation conditions (approximately 80°F with high humidity).

### 7. **Lifespan and Growth**

- **Lifespan**: With proper care, Pueblan Milk Snakes can live 15 years or more in captivity.

- **Growth Rate**: They can grow rapidly, reaching around 3-4 feet in length as adults, depending on the care and diet provided.

### 8. **General Tips**

- **Research**: Always research thoroughly and understand the specific needs of the Pueblan Milk Snake before bringing one home.

- **Community**: Joining online forums or local reptile groups can provide valuable support and resources for new owners.

By providing a proper habitat, diet, and care, you can enjoy a happy and healthy Pueblan Milk Snake for many years. If you have any specific questions or concerns about your snake, feel free to ask!
