Milk Snake enclosure setup
A single adult needs a 20-40 gallon terrarium with a secure lid. Provide a warm side of 82-85°F (28-29°C) via a heat mat/ceramic, a cool side around 72-75°F (22-24°C), and a night drop to 68°F (20°C). Humidity 40-60% with a water bowl; a humid hide helps sheds. UVB is not required (nocturnal), though a low light is harmless. Always supply at least two hides.
Common mistakes with Milk Snakes
Key errors: housing two snakes together (kingsnakes cannibalize cage mates), feeding live prey (bites and infections), prey sized too large (regurgitation/impaction), and no temperature gradient (poor digestion).
