Point taken!
Y'all should've seen the people hit the banks when someone said it's a copperhead. Me being the expert I am, I told them it's a blotched water snake. It was aggressive but what do expect when rocks are getting thrown at you.
Busted a few large rat snakes either in or trying to get into the chicken house but outside that it's been slow.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
I don't even know what to say but LOL. He done turned him into an SRT Viper.
Please ID.
Deceased...
Young racer
Found in the wild of Milam County. Not 100% sure what I'm looking at but have a feeling. Would like a for sure ID.
Looks like a timber to me.
This is what I thought. I've never seen one around here before.
Young rat? Something else? Location is Fayette/Lavaca county line.
Western Hognose maybe?aggiesportsfiend10 said:

I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.
That is a young prairie kingsnake

I've got a question for you experts here. I read or heard somewhere that the Timber rattlers venom varies by latitude I think. That farther south the venom is hemotoxinous while farther north it's more neurotoxinous.
Do I need to quit that information source permanently?
There's some truth to that. A friend of mine lead a study on that and he found that the venom does vary quite a bit over their range (all of the eastern US) and that the most potent animals are from north Florida and East Texas/West Louisiana. The head size even correlates. So don't get bit by one in Texas!
Yea size wise I understand that they even bigger than in my old youth stomping grounds around Mirando City.
This. It's not a western hognose.
It's a shame they killed it. I've been trying to convince them otherwise, but my bro wants all snakes dead. I get asked what it is after the fact.
They are about as harmless as it gets
Saved this one from the construction field guys who thought it was a moccasin.
Good job
But... but... but it's brown and snakey.
Broad banded water snake.

- He never moved. Just bowed up. I went around…
That would be a nope.
Nice cottonmouth pics.

He just wants a kiss…
I was waiting for that last picture! Cools pics.
He froze in the second pic as we approached. Gently Tossed the rock which landed on his back but he didn't strike at it, just kept his mouth open and his tail moving as if he had rattles.
Spooky as that's right where I dove hunt. Will be mowing good before hunting.
