Thanks for responding. When you say that you're afraid of losing your scarlet king to the eastern milks, do you mean you're afraid of the eastern milks eating the scarlet king? Sorry, both responses said that, and I'm a little confused. I don't know if I will breed my scarlet to a milk, but I just thought it might be an option. I guess the real question is, should I breed my male scarlet to an eastern milk, or to another scarlet king? I think that "coastal plains milks" are gorgeous snakes, but so are scarlet kings. Thanks again,

::I was wondering if a male scarlet king will voluntarily breed with a female eastern milk, or vice versa? If they do breed, will the hatchlings turn out looking like coastal plains milks? Sorry, I'm not so good with genetics. I have a scarlet, and I was thinking about breeding it to an eastern milk because the hatchlings are larger and easier to get started than scarlet king hatchlings. Thanks,

:: I got a negative response too. I was asking because I was afraid of losing my "normal" sized (16") male s.k. to a 24" female s.k.. I'm sure they'll be o.k. however. Should be ready to try next week or so. I doubt the hatchlings will be THAT much bigger or have an appetite for pinks any more than the s.k.s. Hopefully the babies from my big female will be a little bigger this year, however I have no trouble feeding any of my scarlet kings. I may try the cross in the future but I will probably keep all the babies. If and when someone gets anything from me, it will be truthfully represented as I hope others do with theirs.
