Look at what I found this morning
 
I found this guy outside my apartment this morning, I have a python and mostly geckos so I am not sure what this guy is, I was told a milksnake. If someone here could give me a rundown of care for it and tell me what it is that would be great. I want to have proper housing in a temporary enclosure till I maybe find the owner. Not sure what I am going to do with it if I can't find the owner though, I dont have anymore room for reptiles.lol

looks like a thayeri kingsnake to me (lampropeltis mexicana thayeri)
general kingsnake care should be OK. Seeing as you're in idaho, its probably someones pet as they are native futher south.

I agree with Daniel's ID. Definitely has to be someone's escaped pet. Do you know of any other herp keepers in your complex?

Thank you, I looked at some pics on google and that has to be it. The only person I know that has herps is my apartment manager and I called her and she checked all her snakes were where they were supposed to be and she keeps corns so she said it wasn't hers. I am going to hang up flyers around the apartment complex and give it like 2 weeks and if nobody claims him he will be free to a good home. I will make sure he goes to someone that knows what they are doing though. the manager here told me to take him to Petoc so they would adopt him out, I told her i didn't want him to die so that was out tof the question. He is really beautiful I just dont have anymore room right now. I just hope I can find the owner, I know how it feels to lose an animal.
