Basic Care Information:
Taking care of a Pueblan X Nelson Milk Snake is a rewarding experience. Their enclosure requires a temperature gradient, with a warm end reaching 85-88°F and a cool end around 70-75°F. A hide box should be provided at both ends. The substrate can be as simple as newspaper, but aspen shavings or similar substrates can be used for burrowing behavior.

The diet for these snakes consists primarily of rodents, with size and quantity based on the age and size of the snake. As a rule of thumb, the prey item should be about the same width as the widest part of the snake's body. Juveniles may be fed every 5-7 days, with adults fed every 7-10 days.

Humidity levels should be maintained at around 40-60%. This can be increased during shedding periods to help facilitate the process. Regular handling is encouraged to keep them accustomed to human interaction, but always remember to handle them gently and respectfully.
