I didn't know they were that particular. I do know milk snakes can be timid feeders. I have an Eastern that is about 3 years old and looks like 1 1/2 to 2 years old, because it is a really picky eater. Mine will rarely take a small adult mouse, and more often goes for crawlers. It will take pinkies but only live ones, so I go for the crawlers - less expensive since I can feed it two or three crawlers at one feeding as opposed to 10-12 pinkies or so at a feeding and be feeding it the same weight of food.
It will be fun to find out more details about this snake and all the other info about it.
