The General Care and Maintenance of Milk Snakes

By Robert Applegate

My goal with this book is to provide you with essential information for the long-term care and maintenance of this beautiful and variable species of snake.    I have chosen to present this in an informal manner, writing as if we were in the same room carrying on a conversation.  Most of what is contained in this book are my personal opinions, based on many years of my experience and the shared knowledge of others.  An additional goal, should you choose to be part of this program, is to provide you with the information needed to reproduce species in captivity and provide additional specimens to the public, thereby reducing the need and demand to collect large numbers of additional wild specimens.  I am a strong advocate of "Conservation Through Captive Propagation."
