Description

The Pueblan Milk Snake (Lampropeltis triangulum campbelli), also known as Campbell’s Milk Snake, is a striking milk snake recognized for its bright tri-color pattern of red, black, and white bands. This non-venomous colubrid is one of the most popular milk snakes in the reptile hobby and is commonly bred in captivity.

Pueblan Milk Snakes are part of the Lampropeltis group, which includes kingsnakes and milk snakes. Their bold coloration resembles coral snakes, a natural defense strategy known as Batesian mimicry. This gives them a dramatic appearance while still being a non-venomous species suitable for responsible reptile keepers.

This species does best in a secure enclosure with proper heat, a warm hide, a cool hide, fresh water, and appropriate substrate. Pueblan Milk Snakes are terrestrial and should always be housed individually because kingsnakes and milk snakes may eat other snakes. They feed on properly sized frozen-thawed or pre-killed rodents, with prey size and feeding frequency adjusted as the snake grows.

Whether you are looking for a colorful pet snake or adding a classic milk snake species to your collection, the Pueblan Milk Snake is a hardy, attractive, and rewarding reptile choice for keepers who can provide secure, species-appropriate care.
