I have to say, your videos have done wonders for helping me deal with my fear of snakes. I used to have small panic attacks whenever I'd see any kind of snake, venomous or not. But just recently, I was out with my Sunday School class, and one of them found a snake. After taking a look, we identified it as a scarlet king snake. After all my kids ooh'd and ahh'd at it, another teacher then herded it into a bucket and released it in a pasture across from our church. The surprising thing is that I didn't feel any panic. It was actually a really cute little thing, and that's something I never thought I'd think about a snake.
They're really nice (certain types obv) if you ever go to Tokyo there's an Owl Cafe where you can handle a snow Honduran milk snake or king snake, and it's not slimey at all, kind of smooth yet scaly. They're firm and soft at the same time and really lovely! I was a little nervous at first and I was asking questions to the lady (is it poisonous, what species, does it bite, what does it eat, etc) to clam myself down and relax a bit and it showed signs of being uncomfortable, but soon it calmed down and so did I. It wrapped itself around my arm and kind of snuggled. The lady then told me different ways to handle it, and they were really satisfying!
I have an anerythristic honduran milksnake named Milkshake :] and the "feeding mode" is so true! He's always such a gentle and sweet boy but the second he's in his feeding tub, he gets SO excited and tries eating the mice sideways instead of head or butt first :P then gets confused why he can't swallow hahaha
She also doesn't yell at me "HEY WHATSUPCZcamsTHISISYABOYOMGSNAKEGUY17!!!!!!" I hate that. Everyone needs to settle down. I appreciate she is informative and gets right to the point. This is one of my go-to channels learning about snakes, since my kid desperately wants one and I want to ensure we do it right.
I wouldn’t say she has a low voice, but it is a nice one. More to the point, you can tell that she is almost always smiling and excited. This isn’t boring information to her, which makes us feel it is cheerful information worth listening to. Dollightful is similar in this way. She isn’t the most extravagant doll customizer, but definitely the most cheerful!
I also know a way to make the difference between a milk/king snake (harmless) and a coral snake (venomous)! Look at their color pattern. Then remember the rhyme: Red touches black; you're okay Jack (-> it's a milk snake) Red touches yellow; you're a dead fellow (-> it's a coral snake)
You are as smart as you are beautiful. I really enjoy listening to your advice and knowledge and I have some very healthy snakes because of it! Thanks!!
And I'm a viewer from even further into the future! Their facility is in fact amazing! It's definitely on my bucket list of places to visit at some point
I would love a video from you on Mexican black king snakes or California King snakes. You are the most reliable reptile expert I can find on you tube. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
So happy to have found your channel! I've been researching snake husbandry for over a year now, and will most likely be getting a king/milk snake. I love the colors of the second one, the golden band is so pretty.
I actually just bought an anery Honduran milkshake! I’m more of a ball python person but as soon as I saw this little angel I had to have him. Thanks for the amazing videos!
I just got a milk snake the same color as yours, and once it's in the feeding enclosure, it goes nuts. It got so excited once that it tried to eat itself!😂 Plus, your milksnake is 👌
I just got a kingsnake today from petco. It honestly was a little more pocket friendly than a breeder for me currently but will definitely get one in the future. It’s got scales on its belly that have a rainbow shimmer if the light hits them just right. He is beautiful and loves to be held already
For future reference please don’t buy from petco. They often have unhealthy animals and always get their animals from mills, which are not good things to support.
Nighting Gale I know that they are not good to support, I just couldn’t purchase from a breeder right now because I didn’t have the money to buy from a breeder, plus, i didn’t have an enclosure set up and all that so it seemed easier for me to get everything needed for the snake and to get one there. When this one eventually dies, I will definitely purchase from a breeder because likely I will have enough for a new snake (possibly enough for a cool morph) plus I won’t need to get any other supplies for it besides food and aspen fiber.
I love it when I tell customers at my work the story of how milksnakes get their names (kids think its super hilarious) and I learned it by this video! 😂
I love y’all’s videos. My wife got me in to wanting to own a few snakes and possibly breeding them. When you come to Louisiana remember : red and black friendly jack. Red and yellow kill a fellow. Meaning our milk snakes are red yellow and black like our scarlet and coral snakes . But both Texas and eastern coral snakes are : red yellow black yellow red yellow black ( red touches yellow) Milk snake is black red black yellow black red black yellow black …. And scarlet snake copies this pattern of the milk snake but with out the yellow
I have a room full of pythons and boas and one of my tattoo clients just dropped off a tri color milk snake. He's pretty cool but I haven't decided if he's permanent yet. No matter what I'll make sure he's well taken care of I'm just more of a constrictor guy than colubrid. This is a good video, good info for sure.
So... just came home with stuff for a albino hondurasnakethingy thats booked today aswell.. my better half have been binge-watching your videos and got excited as she always have wanted one.. x)
You know I'm a great fan of yours.. when ever i watch a video of yours i fall in love with snakes more and more.. but in India though we legally have permission to rear exotic snakes.. their price and ffogen food availability is only in metropolitan cities far from where i live.. hope that i could ever get a chance to rear a snake.. fingers crossed
Thank you so much for making these useful videos there amazing and really helpful to everyone including me I thank you for all the tips and tutorials of taking care of these amazing animals
I have heard a story about snakes going into houses, covering a mothers nose and umm...drinking their milk before... Not sure that it has anything to do with milk snakes but just thought I should share..
My dad (who all through my growing-up years hated snakes) is the proud owner of two adult king snakes who he swears are smarter than my sister's hognose and her boa. Suffice to say I think he's hooked...
Oh I love paper towel cardboard tube I use it with my Parrotlet to go inside the holes 🕳 to play tunnel play with it it’s really fun to use that for some small animals who can get inside and run all the way to the other side
I wouldn't recommend aspen fibers as bedding because if water gets on the aspen it will cause the aspen to rot which then causes the snakes scales to rot
And now they're farmers best friend, they take care of the rodent problem in the barn. I really hope people change, and love all reptiles. I really love them! I have a lampropeltus Californiae 3month young aberrant male. He's such a good boy. The most adorable personality ever, very curious and not bitey, or nervous at all, even the tail rattling is gone with handling him every day! My boy sheds fine without humidity box. But it's between 40-55% humidity in my terrarium. I live in the rainy country Belgium.👍😃🐍 Emily do you have a Cali king aswell, or not? They're the best beginner kingsnake together with the MBK.
Would a setup like this (temps for thermal gradient & having the humidity box) work for a California kingsnake as well? How did the substrate end up working out? :)
I think my milksnake is broken. :'D As a baby he was scared of his food. Frozen pinkies (thawed of course). He'd hiss at them and try to escape. Now he eats well, but he doesn't strangle them or anything... just sort of grabs them... then swallows them. Adult mice of course now. He's 13 years old. :P Also, I can literally put my hand in and poke his nose right after feeding him. He won't bite. He's never bitten anyone. He's the best snake. :)
Hello! I have an albino nelsons milksnake! I am a new snake owner and I had to help him shed. I didn't see any eye caps anywhere but his eyes look just like they always do. The same as your snakes. Is there a way to tell if his caps came off or are still on? Thank you.
Please consider Rossini as a name for your newest Milk snake, he looks like a barber pole, And Rossini composed The Barber of Seville - known and loved by Bugs Bunny fans everywhere.
I’m trying to convince my mom to get me a milk snake but she doesn’t like hurting the mice so I’m gonna still try to get one but I think I have a better chance with a ribbon snake :(
I want to kind of show off my snake, so I was thinking a 20 long. My question is, is there any other bedding you can use besides Aspen? Or is there a mix of different ones you can use? I currently own 8 geckos & 2 tree frogs and they are all in their own Vivariums, can I make a vivarium for a Milk Snake?
Nice enthusiasm and good basic setup. But some criticisms: Early on you discussed color difference between northern milks and the Nelson's milk you were holding, representing a lighter southern form. How could you not mention that the Nelson's is an albino? It's a beauty, but It really has no place in discussion of natural color variation. Then, the second snake shown is probably not a milksnake at all. I will bet it is a Variable Kingsnake, AKA Nuevo Leone Kingsnake (Lampropeltis Mexicana Thayeri) in a milksnake phase color variation. BTW, a guy mentioned below that he just got a Sinaloan Milksnake. I hope it brings him as much joy as mine has brought me for the past 22 years.
Sorry, I was too quick on the draw. After watching more of your videos I'll concede that it's an annulata or now abnorma I guess. But it still does look an awful lot like an msp thayeri.
Old vid but really helpful so I wanna say thank you! I just got a beautiful baby albino Nelson milksnake 3 days ago! The pet store I got her from said they think she is a girl so I named her Aspen! (/Mochi as a cute nickname bc I couldn’t decide betweeen names 😅) She’s like super tiny at this point in time but the humidity box thing is genius bc I got her a 20 gal terrarium and it likes to sit more at 20-30% humidity no matter how often I mist it. Also if u see this a question I have is, do they lose their cute bright neon yellow stripes as they get older? Doesn’t make a difference to me but I just noticed the albino you were holding had really faded yellow bands so I’m was just curious if my snake will look similar at all when it matures!
I have a pueblen milk snake and he is one and a half but when I take him out sometimes he is calm and othetimes like today he will musk all over me will he ever stop.
What anti parasite treatment do you do what product do you use to spray what with, are you spraying the substrate with the anti parasite solution? Thanks for this helpful info and video
Madelyn Meyer yes they are. They are hardy so are king snakes milksnakes garden snakes rat, ribbon ball python corn. Everything else is mainly for experienced owners. OH BTW seriously check out the red tailed rat snake. It's actually a bright green with a red tail it's gorgeous. It's as cool looking as the hypo tangerine honduran milk snake which is tiger striped.
I realise a lot of these set up videos, including those from other channels, talk about setting up enclosures in more temperate regions. But what happens to those setting up enclosures in the tropical regions? Y'know, when the air is already pretty humid, and the weather is already above 90F in the daytime?
Great question! I would not get a milksnake unless you can keep the ambient temps under 82 deg F. The floor is the coolest place. But a boa or python would do well in your area.
How do you heat the plastic enclosure container? Again what size is ok for a king snake and do you make holes 🕳 with a drill as I have seen some other snake care videos that have holes drilled on the side?! Is that necessary and thanks again.
Emily:~talking about milk snake~ Snake in tank: hello U KNOW I EXIST HEY HEY LOOK AT me she must be soo lonely talking to a camera hey U am here ya know Snake doesn’t know: talking to camera so we can listen to Emily
So the brown ones are...
*Chocolate milk snakes*
Cat the Destoryer 👏 BEAUTIFUL
XD You should get an award!
Slow claps in apporval.
Boiiiiiiii yaaaaaaasssss
that means if they are pink or red strawberry milk snakes?
MY MILKSNAKE BRINGS ALL THE BOYS TO THE YARD
Now she sells merch that says that :oo
AND THEYRE LIKE, “BLE LE LE LE LE”
I drew a milksnake on a milkshake and put that as a caption
Lmao 😂
I thought u said Milkshake 😳😳😳
I have to say, your videos have done wonders for helping me deal with my fear of snakes.
I used to have small panic attacks whenever I'd see any kind of snake, venomous or not. But just recently, I was out with my Sunday School class, and one of them found a snake. After taking a look, we identified it as a scarlet king snake. After all my kids ooh'd and ahh'd at it, another teacher then herded it into a bucket and released it in a pasture across from our church.
The surprising thing is that I didn't feel any panic. It was actually a really cute little thing, and that's something I never thought I'd think about a snake.
They're really nice (certain types obv) if you ever go to Tokyo there's an Owl Cafe where you can handle a snow Honduran milk snake or king snake, and it's not slimey at all, kind of smooth yet scaly. They're firm and soft at the same time and really lovely! I was a little nervous at first and I was asking questions to the lady (is it poisonous, what species, does it bite, what does it eat, etc) to clam myself down and relax a bit and it showed signs of being uncomfortable, but soon it calmed down and so did I. It wrapped itself around my arm and kind of snuggled. The lady then told me different ways to handle it, and they were really satisfying!
Same!
I have an anerythristic honduran milksnake named Milkshake :] and the "feeding mode" is so true! He's always such a gentle and sweet boy but the second he's in his feeding tub, he gets SO excited and tries eating the mice sideways instead of head or butt first :P then gets confused why he can't swallow hahaha
+Finnegan Raines Haha! At least snakes are cute, because they're definitely not the brightest animals on Earth :P
That sounds like such a sweet little noodle
Finnegan Raines do he bite or not??
I think you have a derpy noodle baby
This is so funny my mom had a black king snake before I was born
compared to other youtubers she has a low non sharp voice which is good
I have to pet milksnake named. Brudis
also nice they get straight to the point all the other channels seem to go on and on without actually saying anything worth hearing (imo)
She also doesn't yell at me "HEY WHATSUPCZcamsTHISISYABOYOMGSNAKEGUY17!!!!!!" I hate that. Everyone needs to settle down. I appreciate she is informative and gets right to the point. This is one of my go-to channels learning about snakes, since my kid desperately wants one and I want to ensure we do it right.
Very true. I'm not even a snake person and I enjoy her videos!
I wouldn’t say she has a low voice, but it is a nice one. More to the point, you can tell that she is almost always smiling and excited. This isn’t boring information to her, which makes us feel it is cheerful information worth listening to. Dollightful is similar in this way. She isn’t the most extravagant doll customizer, but definitely the most cheerful!
I've wanted a milksnake ever since I watched A Series of Unfortunate Events and I saw Uncle Monty's reptile room
Sameeeeee lol
i love you so much
When he went into his hide that was gorgeous
I also know a way to make the difference between a milk/king snake (harmless) and a coral snake (venomous)! Look at their color pattern. Then remember the rhyme:
Red touches black; you're okay Jack (-> it's a milk snake)
Red touches yellow; you're a dead fellow (-> it's a coral snake)
Also remember that this rhyme only works in certain areas, as patterns differ amongst coral snake species.
You are as smart as you are beautiful. I really enjoy listening to your advice and knowledge and I have some very healthy snakes because of it! Thanks!!
She is so nice and sympathico! Really knows a lot about snakes and presents it in a great way! Super
Hey! I'm a visitor from the future...
Emily and Ed, your facility is going to be awesome!
And I'm a viewer from even further into the future! Their facility is in fact amazing! It's definitely on my bucket list of places to visit at some point
I would love a video from you on Mexican black king snakes or California King snakes. You are the most reliable reptile expert I can find on you tube. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
I love the fact that you wrote "Starring Candy Cane and Nixie the Milksnakes"! They surely are super stars ✨❤️
So happy to have found your channel! I've been researching snake husbandry for over a year now, and will most likely be getting a king/milk snake. I love the colors of the second one, the golden band is so pretty.
0:13 - WHAT A CUTIE PIE

Is that “Creepy Cooter” near the end of the video? 😂 he seems rather interested! My corn snake is the exact same way.
No, Creepy cooter is a blood red corn snake with no pattern. That was a milksnake at the end.
Oh wait...sorry i thought you meant the one she has in her hand. I didnt notice him in a bin behind her😂
I love it when I tell customers at my work the story of how milksnakes get their names (kids think its super hilarious) and I learned it by this video! 😂
I miss candy cane!!!
me too :(
I love y’all’s videos. My wife got me in to wanting to own a few snakes and possibly breeding them.
When you come to Louisiana remember : red and black friendly jack. Red and yellow kill a fellow.
Meaning our milk snakes are red yellow and black like our scarlet and coral snakes .
But both Texas and eastern coral snakes are : red yellow black yellow red yellow black ( red touches yellow)
Milk snake is black red black yellow black red black yellow black ….
And scarlet snake copies this pattern of the milk snake but with out the yellow
That rhyme is unreliable. It’s completely inaccurate outside of the US, and even in the US, aberrant individuals exist.
@@nightinggale6470 if you read what I said it’s for Louisiana. Not all the other states .
@@travislee8139 aberrant individuals exist in Louisiana too. It’s best to learn how to ID the snakes in your area, not rely on a rhyme.
I really like snow Honduran milksnakes! I first handled one in an Owl Cafe in Tokyo and I love them!
Recently got my first snake, she’s a Honduran milk snake and this video helped me out a lot!
The only channel I trust
awww i have a nelson milk snake too, i love my baby, she is very shy but i love her no matter what
That was amazing to see it immediately run and slither into the cave MashaAllah completely amazing 😻
I have a room full of pythons and boas and one of my tattoo clients just dropped off a tri color milk snake. He's pretty cool but I haven't decided if he's permanent yet.

Nice, thank you for all the information; gives me more confidence to start my two baby king snakes.
Shoutout to the Woma in the background! :)
I love your videos ❤ and I’ve always wanted to come see you! I’m a snake LOVER! Any snake I see I want to hold it but sometimes I can’t.
So... just came home with stuff for a albino hondurasnakethingy thats booked today aswell.. my better half have been binge-watching your videos and got excited as she always have wanted one.. x)
You and your snakes are very beautiful)
aha good try bud

Here because I had a dream about them!!!!! They were following me in pairs!
I just got a milksnake and these videos help so much
We have an albino Nelson Milksnake. He doesn't ever want to stay in his heat house. He is always cold.
amazing! Thank you for sharing this experiece with us
Oh I love paper towel cardboard tube I use it with my Parrotlet to go inside the holes 🕳 to play tunnel play with it it’s really fun to use that for some small animals who can get inside and run all the way to the other side
Not gonna lie I like their name it's weirdly cute
As others said, you're videos are excellent. It's all about the animals and the information you provide is better than 90% of the herp videos online.
it amazing how there different type of snake skin patterns.
Just brought my baby California Kingsnake home today!!
Had an albino milksnake named oj that i used to take to the repticon show each year and let the kids get pictures with. He was a ham lol.
I wouldn't recommend aspen fibers as bedding because if water gets on the aspen it will cause the aspen to rot which then causes the snakes scales to rot
Love how informative u are!
I think the first milk snake you have in the video is native to my state (Texas) I was taught about them years ago when I was in elementary school.
And now they're farmers best friend, they take care of the rodent problem in the barn. I really hope people change, and love all reptiles. I really love them! I have a lampropeltus Californiae 3month young aberrant male. He's such a good boy. The most adorable personality ever, very curious and not bitey, or nervous at all, even the tail rattling is gone with handling him every day! My boy sheds fine without humidity box. But it's between 40-55% humidity in my terrarium. I live in the rainy country Belgium.👍😃🐍 Emily do you have a Cali king aswell, or not? They're the best beginner kingsnake together with the MBK.
MashaAllah thank you for all this info I kinda like milk snakes as they are collubrids too but my fave is Kingsnakes
I'm thinking of getting a California KingSnake. This helped a lot!
I want to draw Candycane in a milkshake to call it a milkshnake
For a first time snake owner what breed would you prefer to start with
Would a setup like this (temps for thermal gradient & having the humidity box) work for a California kingsnake as well?
How did the substrate end up working out? :)
Wondering the same thing
is it ok to use aspen bedding for a baby cal king snake?
Yes, definitely!
It’s perfect for them since they like low humidity!
I think my milksnake is broken. :'D As a baby he was scared of his food. Frozen pinkies (thawed of course). He'd hiss at them and try to escape. Now he eats well, but he doesn't strangle them or anything... just sort of grabs them... then swallows them. Adult mice of course now. He's 13 years old. :P Also, I can literally put my hand in and poke his nose right after feeding him. He won't bite. He's never bitten anyone. He's the best snake. :)
My corn nicki is the same soppy as anything
Can you do a video on corn snakes? Also how often should you feed a milk snake?
We have a milk snake in Minnesota? ! Can they be kept and or crossed with southern varietys? Beautiful.
I have that exact snake. i love him.
In the northeast (where I’m from) the milk snakes are very vibrant
you can also freeze the bedding to get rid of any possible mites
Do you have links for some of the products you use like the mite spray
I just got a Sinaloan Milk Snake yesterday!
Hello! I have an albino nelsons milksnake! I am a new snake owner and I had to help him shed. I didn't see any eye caps anywhere but his eyes look just like they always do. The same as your snakes. Is there a way to tell if his caps came off or are still on? Thank you.
Thanks for making this video.I really want a milk snake.
you couldnt be more right about the "feed mode " mine goes crazy haha
Could you do a video on how to care for corn snakes?
Pandoras Galaxy yes. yes. yes. please
I had a corn snake, they're rather easy to care for, if you need substrate they love Aspen substrate. But yeah a video on it would be great!
I can’t wait to get my Cali king snake
How do you like the hemp base? Did it end up working well for you?
Could you get fake leaves and snap them off the fake thingy it comes on and scatter them in the enclosure?
Yeah! I have silk flowers around my enclosures
Just make sure there's no sharp bits or glitter or anything and you're good
Awesome presentation. You're very smooth and appealing to the ears (and eyes)- Interested to know. How would you set up an aquarium housing?
everyone thinks of snakes as vicious predators that bite you as soon as posible but they're cute little noodles that can even be scared of you
I wasn't impressed with hemp at all after using aspen? Stinky, especially when soiled.
Nice presentation. Well done.
Please consider Rossini as a name for your newest Milk snake, he looks like a barber pole, And Rossini composed The Barber of Seville - known and loved by Bugs Bunny fans everywhere.
3:33 the Woma python is dancing in background!
Where do you get the heat tape for your snakes?
Alex Recar We got it from Reptile Basics (.com)
Is this the same care as a king snake?
Please consider doing a Hognose care video. Thanks!
I’m trying to convince my mom to get me a milk snake but she doesn’t like hurting the mice so I’m gonna still try to get one but I think I have a better chance with a ribbon snake :(
I like your videos and I like you too😂😂because most of girls that I been meet are afraid of snakes🐍😂😂😂
I like the red white and black
I want to kind of show off my snake, so I was thinking a 20 long.
My question is, is there any other bedding you can use besides Aspen? Or is there a mix of different ones you can use?
I currently own 8 geckos & 2 tree frogs and they are all in their own Vivariums, can I make a vivarium for a Milk Snake?
My uncle raped me with a bottle of tabasco
I love lignocel bedding
Reptile Prime is good if you keep it just barely damp. I have been using it for a year or so, and I like the results for milk snakes.
You're amazing
Can you do a hognose snake care video
Nice enthusiasm and good basic setup. But some criticisms:
Early on you discussed color difference between northern milks and the Nelson's milk you were holding, representing a lighter southern form. How could you not mention that the Nelson's is an albino? It's a beauty, but It really has no place in discussion of natural color variation.

Sorry, I was too quick on the draw. After watching more of your videos I'll concede that it's an annulata or now abnorma I guess. But it still does look an awful lot like an msp thayeri.
Old vid but really helpful so I wanna say thank you! I just got a beautiful baby albino Nelson milksnake 3 days ago! The pet store I got her from said they think she is a girl so I named her Aspen! (/Mochi as a cute nickname bc I couldn’t decide betweeen names 😅) She’s like super tiny at this point in time but the humidity box thing is genius bc I got her a 20 gal terrarium and it likes to sit more at 20-30% humidity no matter how often I mist it. Also if u see this a question I have is, do they lose their cute bright neon yellow stripes as they get older? Doesn’t make a difference to me but I just noticed the albino you were holding had really faded yellow bands so I’m was just curious if my snake will look similar at all when it matures!
20-30% is a bit low for the humidity, 30-50% is ideal. Is your hygrometer digital or analog?
I have a pueblen milk snake and he is one and a half but when I take him out sometimes he is calm and othetimes like today he will musk all over me will he ever stop.
I'm getting a puberian milk snake very helpful
great info, thanks!
i like your snake and it look like a candy cane
What anti parasite treatment do you do what product do you use to spray what with, are you spraying the substrate with the anti parasite solution? Thanks for this helpful info and video
Can you pls do more vids on hog nose snakes and are they a good first time snake
Madelyn Meyer yes they are. They are hardy so are king snakes milksnakes garden snakes rat, ribbon ball python corn. Everything else is mainly for experienced owners. OH BTW seriously check out the red tailed rat snake. It's actually a bright green with a red tail it's gorgeous. It's as cool looking as the hypo tangerine honduran milk snake which is tiger striped.
NOOOOOO THEY ARE THERE TOO PICKYYYYY
I realise a lot of these set up videos, including those from other channels, talk about setting up enclosures in more temperate regions.

@@6strings735 that's very helpful. Thanks!
How do you heat the plastic enclosure container? Again what size is ok for a king snake and do you make holes 🕳 with a drill as I have seen some other snake care videos that have holes drilled on the side?! Is that necessary and thanks again.
