The more i think of it the more concerned im getting that my female mexi might be a black milk due to her size.Been looking at pics of black milks and cant tell the differance,would i be right in thinking that a black milk would'nt have the flecks on there bellys like some mexi's do because they would'nt of had them before they went black,mine has some flecks of yellow so im hoping she's defo a mexi.Hope this makes sense to eveyone.
check out this monster,not mine but it's a black milk

wow! That is a monster!
I think it'll be hard for us to tell without seeing her in the flesh as there should be some milkish traits to a milk snake I would think.
She is big for a mexi- but that can all depend on how she was fed before you got her and genetics etc. We've all said before that our mexis don't stick to the typical 4.5ft that is supposed to be average for the species. Maybe she's just a big girl? |

| does she have a very faint banding pattern... the black milks have the remnants of their tri-colour beginnings in that you can still just about see the banding... |

| I'll try and do a bit of research for you in the books I've got at home to see if there's anything to distinguish the two from one another. |
