Meh. It's not particularly easy to get envenomated by a coral snake.

Where was it near the bayou? Just curious, as I know a bunch of the people that give the bat talks down at Waugh. Curious if it was near there.

You're not wrong because they tend to be pretty docile but be careful because there is a lot of misconception about coal snakes - particularly about their fangs.

My problem is I have lived in Iowa too long and tend not to even think about snakes being around when I come back home to Texas to visit family. LOL

On county road near Texas Tech U. entrance at Junction this a.m., while walking dogs. The dogs were behind me so leashed them up.

My sister got a rat snake in her chicken coop. It had eaten two of her fake eggs.

I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

Just from the pattern that was my first guess as well, but it was so close to the pool & creek...plus being so small I don't know enough to say...

Other than a bed of Asian jasmine 6' from the pool was a poor landscaping decision back in the day....

Wife was taking dogs out early this morning and said hey, come tell me what kind of snake this is on the front porch

It didn't hang around long enough for me to get a pic but it looked like a very young Dekay's Brown Snake

Haven't seen one of those before

i see some yellow under it's mouth, but I would have seen the thick body and mascara-looking creases over the eyes and thought it was a cottonmouth.

Yep, at first glance… until you see the cartoonish eyes of a water snake.

I can't remember which Ledbetter boy was sent up the tree to knock the 'coon out, which turned out to be a lynx (a souped up bobcat)
