Identify this Snake

Featured Replies

Title says it all. Please Identify. Found the snake sleeping under my boat tarp at around 10:00am yesterday Morning. I live in Central Florida with a pond behind my house if that helps.

The top kinda looks like a Copper head but that black and white bottom has me stumped. Considering its size I say its some kinda of rat snake

What tipped you off that it was dead? Was it the blood?  :P

Could be a corn snake

Whatever type it is, it's too small to be made into a pair of boots.  Watch strap perhaps?  :)

Corn snake. Caught this dude fishing the other day. Put em back a few seconds later. I think it was a big gopher snake.

Definitely a Corn Snake.  Very popular in the pet trade.  Totally harmless to people.  Master mice and rat killers. 

Please don't kill snakes.

You just exterminated a completely harmless snake.

If that snake were to be in NC it would be a King snake. Never heard of a Corn snake, but we are a small town.

There is no such thing as a harmless snake.  A many a non-poisonous snake has scared me into hurting myself. ;D

Wow. I guess someone never got his junior biology merit badge. :'(

I got my ruthless killer of things that bites merit badge.  Does that count?
