Description
The Anery Hondruan Milksnake Baby is a striking, captive-bred reptile for the intermediate to advanced keeper looking for a unique, patternless morph. This snake offers a clean, high-contrast aesthetic with its gray and white coloration, free of the typical red pigment. We added this specimen to our catalog in early 2024 from a reliable breeder with consistently positive feedback. Its manageable size and predictable temperament make it a solid choice for a focused collection.
Stand-Out Features
- Anerythristic Morph: Lacks red and yellow pigments, resulting in a clean black, white, and gray palette that intensifies with age.
- Captive-Bred & Established: Hatched in captivity, feeding reliably on frozen/thawed pinky mice, reducing common acclimation issues.
- Ideal Intermediate Species: More substantial and active than a Corn Snake but more manageable than larger colubrids, perfect for stepping up.
- Consistent Coloration: The anery gene produces predictable, high-contrast banding that won’t brown out like some other morphs.
- Hardy Disposition: Known for being a resilient feeder and adapting well to standard captive husbandry setups.

Your Questions Answered
What size enclosure does this baby snake need now?
Start with a 10-gallon or similar secure enclosure. Provide multiple hides, a water bowl, and appropriate substrate like aspen or coconut husk. They are adept escape artists, so ensure all openings are sealed.
How is its feeding response and schedule?
This animal is established on frozen/thawed pinky mice. Feed one appropriately sized prey item every 5-7 days. Our staff notes they have a strong feeding response, but handling should be avoided for 48 hours after eating to prevent regurgitation.
Will its color change as it matures?
Yes. The gray and white contrast will become more pronounced. The black pigment may deepen, and the white bands will remain clean, solidifying the classic “anery” look without developing the brown tones seen in some other snakes.
