Tri-color milksnake ID help please

I've had my adult Pueblan female for some time now, and after losing the male, I accepted another in a trade. Now that I compare the 2, I'm starting to think the male I just received is either a Nelson's or Mexican milksnake.

I spoke to the gentleman from whom I received him, and he's sure it's a Pueblan. Furthermore, he's got no reason to lie about it. He asked if I'd take it in trade without having any idea what I had or needed. If it does turn out to be something different, so be it...I just won't pair them up.

Anyway, here's a few pics. First up is the Pueblan female, followed by the new male. I emphasised the discrepancies in scale pattern and count on the head of each animal.

Thanks in advance for any help.

The male looks like he has some nesoni in him but also another ssp mixed in. Maybe you have a sinulatta LOL.

Yeah, like Charlie said, it could have geneflow from Sinaloan, annulata, nelsoni, etc...One thing it DEFINITELY isn't, and that is a genuine Pueblan. The dude that claims it is apparently doesn't know squat about milksnake, simple as that.

Hope this helps

I would say Sinaloan mixed with Pueblan.
