    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have a cornsnake now, and I'm planning on getting some kind of milksnake in May or June. So here's the scenario: I'm starting to teach high school biology next year, I do wildlife rehab and a big part of that is educational stuff with live animals, and I'm planning on doing more educational stuff (continuing it actually) with my summers off. I'd like to use my snakes as part of this program.

Which of the milksnakes is the best as far as being calm while handling (hatchlings I don't care about because they can grow out of it...I want to know which adults are more flighty in general)? Anything else I should know about in terms of which kind would work the best in this type of setting?

Thanks!
 
I use sinaloans in my class. I also use ball pythons and my colombiam boas. Make sure you use an animal that is used to lots of hands and movement.
