Sauc Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Can someone tell me what this snake is? He lives in my yard. I don't want my cats to hurt him or him to hurt my cats. He's small, about 2 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrjlh Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Looks like one of the common Rat snakes. Could be a Kuri also but not sure. Harmless. The blue eyes indicate it's either starting or finishing molting. It's partially blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind having snakes around the house, if they are harmless I'd rather not touch him or move him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP is concerned about a potentially lethally venomous snake, and it's moved to the "Pets section". Sorry. Just tickled my fancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick dasterdly Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 My best guess would be a rat snake too, but worryingly, I tend to 'identify' all brown/blackish couloured snakes as rat snakes until they start flattening their head and rearing up.....

Sauc Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Well I guess my "pet snake" is happy now. He had a frog for breakfast IMG_3140.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
