    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'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.

Hmmmm...what to do, what to do!

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
