Around Here Somewhere....
I couldn't wait a few days for these guys to settle in before taking them outside for pictures. I have been dying to get a pair of Sinaloan Milksnakes for a while now, and these two are just so beautiful, and the weather today was just so perfect....and so I caved....

Here looking much better in natural light are Fuerte (the male - first three pics) and Imala (the female - last four pictures):

I included some ventral for Dean in there too!

They are both very easily handled although Fuerte is a little more flighty, moving quickly from hand to hand. He was quite content in the tree though. Imala on the other hand is very happy just curled around my hand. I am very happy with both of them and am keeping fingers crossed that I can successfully breed them this year.

I will catch up the Grayband Kingsnakes later on after the male sheds.
 
Gorgeous. Milksnakes might be my favorite snake. You can easily tell the female apart from the male by her scale tipping. Good luck having babies! Do Sins have any cool morphs? Aren't they one of the biggest milks?

Wow, those guys are beautiful Katie. Congrats. :cheers: I sure hope they cooperate with your breeding plans for them. :)
 
They are gorgeous! I can't blame you for wanting to get pics of them right away! It almost looks as if they were completely happy to sit for the shoot too! Good luck with your breeding plans for them!

When we got our first corn, the shop also had a milksnake. I almost bought that one instead of the corn, but the price at the time was more then I could afford. Now that I'm a bit better off(not alot...lol) a Milk just might be in my future. They are beautiful and your pics are Great!

I have seen some patternless Sinaloans for sale before and the guy I bought these from said he had one baby pop out of one clutch that was patternless. Had a black and white head but then the whole body was red.
All the reading I have done on these guys is that they are a medium sized milksnake - not the largest - averaging around 3ft or so. They are also supposed to be one of the most docile milksnake species (along with the Nelsons).

We'll see how weak or not you are in a couple weeks!!
Yep - the first show and my first big test of the year! LOL! I have some ideas in mind of what I am looking for, but I may come home from this show empty handed. I just spent a small fortune on my new camera and Joe and I leave for vacation 10days after the show, so I need to watch my cash and not get out of hand. The way I look at it...we have a lot more shows this year left so if I don't find exactly what I want, then I will wait...
