Black milk-snakes are a Central American milk snake found mainly in the high altitude cloud forests of panama and Costa Rica. Black milk snakes start off as a big tricolored hatching. It takes a female around a full day to finish laying her eggs. Black milk snakes grow steadily, Reaching as long as 7 feet by 4 to 5 years of age (length of 5 to 6 feet are more common). They weigh about 3 to 3.5 pounds. People believe that theis snakes eat anything they can overpower in the wild, rodents, lizards, other snakes, and possibly small birds. Taking care of the Black milks is important. They need to have a large cage (3feet long, 2 feet wide, 1 to 2 feet tall), Bigger is better. Milk snakes are a montane species. Black milk snakes like it cool, temperatures around the 70s are fine. Avoid temperatures over 80. I would not want this snake because it doesnt interest me that much, its just a plain simple color, black and scary looking. I couldn't really trust them in my opinion.
