: Adult blackmilks can be very impressive animals, but they have a tendancy towards obesity. Their bodies can so thick, you wouldnt think you are looking at a milksnake. However, when you see the relatively milksnake head, you realize you are looking at a seriously warped animal. : My adults that are not overweight are lovely animals. Still, I cannot fairly compare them to indigos. From a distance of many feet away, they look quite similiar. Behavior though, that makes the indigo even more attractive than just it's shine or color. : Either way, I think you'll do ok with those black milks. They are a very unusual milksnake, to say the least. : As far as the price you paid for the babies (300), that seems to be about right. You could have had my trio of adults though for just about 50 more :) : dave : : : Dave Ive kept indigos but last year I bought some albino cobras (fixed) they react to their envirnment very similiar to the way indigos perceive stimuli. I gave my remaining indigo male away to a local University which is now used for education. The cobras have the same "feel" as indigos and the same bad habit of always needing a cleaned cage(they even smell similiar). I bought a pair of baby milks from Al Zulich $300 (is that an okay price?) I do miss the indigos but part of the reason I parted with mine was due to the fact I may move to Florida, cobras are very close to indigos in most respects, I felt guilty having a lone male not used or in a breeding program, and the smell or the feces. Dave do blackmilks look impressive as adults as of yet I have not seen the adults. : : Truly, : : Paul : : : I really do like the costa rican black milks alot, but ever since I got my indigos, I've sorta lost a little interest. They are still really neat snakes, and I enjoy them more than other snakes I've experienced, but there just is no comparision. : : : They are not as curious, not as intelligent, and just not quite as attractive. They lack the interest in their surroundings that the indigos have. All 3 of my indys like to watch what i'm doing, while the milks really dont care. That, that is something that is really cool! : : : That being said, if you do happen to end up liking the milks, please feel free to email me. : : : dave : : : : : : I decided to try a pair of these snakes I just bought a pair coming in the near future, I can let anyone know how they measure up against indigos. : : : : Truly, : : : : Paul
