Black Milk returns after 3 months on the lamb

I don't post here too much, but I had to share this with people who would appreciate it.

My 1.5 yr black milk escaped 3 months ago. I was just sick when I found the empty cage. After a month went by, I quit looking, hoping he might pop up sometime, but not too all optomistic.

So, today, my neighbor comes over. He knows I like snakes, and he tells me one of our other neighbors has a shiny black snake in his garage, and would I come get it out. I knew it had to be mine, because we don't have any all black snakes in this area.

Found him in the garage, cold, dehydrated and skinny, but very much alive. This guy had endured several hard frosts, and an early snowfall. Had a couple minor battle scars, and it looks like the frost got the tip of his tail, but he's gonna be fine!

Yippee! I am elated!
