I've been looking through caresheets here and other places. I know that different kings and milks grow different sizes depending on the morph/subspecies but I can only seem to find sheets that talk about kings or milks as a general and all seem to say they can grow upto 6ft. I can't house a 6ft snake but I can a 4-5 ft snake. Would a MBK grow to these lengths and would a particular milk?



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

To get that big takes a few years so don't panic just yet.
A 3 foot viv would do you for a long time

Ive seen Mexi Blacks about 4 ish feet, the ones we had, a long time ago, were about 4 foot but i havent seen any much bigger than that, that isnt to say they wont grow bigger.

No idea about milks though sorry

Thanks ^^ better get measuring really. I have 4 48inchx15 (and a spare I'm supposed to sell) inches vivs so I guess if it did get to 5ft I could move my adult corn that's smaller than 4ft out a viv and move it into a RUB.

Don't suppose you guys know if a King would be ok living in a RUB and what size RUB would be good? I have read that people use 33l, 50 and 80l for adult corns so I'm guessing the same size would be ok for a King?

Welly, you sig is so cute *_*
