Because of this thread i had dreams last night about snakes. I don't even like snakes but I always look to see what y'all have found. I remember in the dream there was a box full of snakes. A big turquoise Python and two moccasins being a couple. I called snake patrol to have them removed and this chick came up said, "yup. Those are moccasins." Then proceeded to eat the hearts. Bizarre as all hell

you wouldn't have dreams like that if you didn't eat a bunch of acid before going to bed.

You would. It was pretty I just remember I didn't want to touch it. And I was looking at the lines on the moccasins' mouth to see if they lined up or not. I think someone mentioned that a few pages back

Walked into my shop a few minutes ago...

Sorry, trying to upload more photos. The first photo worked fine, but now something isn't working...

Since the picture isn't working, I'm gonna go with a SWAG and say it's a:

1A.) Rat Snake
1B.) hog nose

Picture not very good. I'll say water snake. Not a rat snake.

It appears to be a moccasin and a young one. Does/did it have yellow on the tip of the tail?

The tail portion looks like a juvenile WM ... The head is not clearly visible and the pattern is really off on the upper body.

Not sure, but I'll stick with my first guess.

I give up... Your inability to post photos is contagious

And 100% water moccasin

Sorry about that... I cannot get photos to show up when using my phone.

Computer uploaded them just fine.

Juvenile WM?

It's just a water moccasin. The lighter color on the tail (the only picture I could see at the time) made me think it was a small, juvenile water moccasin. I am pretty sure he is just a subadult.

You need to get the snake slightly more level; I would say off by at least inch to inch and a half.

Water snake.

Nice picture of the stripe through the eye in your third picture. My guess is a cottonmouth.

Definitely a cottonmouth

The last pic should leave zero doubt that it is a cotton mouth. Even though I'm not a snake lover, I have enjoyed and learned a lot from this thread.

So no one is going to comment that there's a freaking cottonmouth in your shop?!? You're a bigger man than me to calmly snap pics of it and then post them on here.

I'd burn the shop down personally. (Make sure your insurance is up to date and everything is covered)

It probably is just a pet that BAB uses to control the rodent population.

I let this snake live last week... relocated it, but it came back and got into my shop this time.

The shop is integral to the house...so no burning it down.

Got a baby and a dog (dog was bitten by the last one I let live a few years ago)...

So after positive id, we shot this one with a high powered bb pistol. Snake fell instantly... walked over to where it fell and never found it. Son of a beach.

Because it lived and is now hiding out plotting revenge!

Keep a journal of the subsequent events and you'll have the beginnings of a marketable screenplay. Might want to figure out how to work some gratuitous female nudity into your normal shop activities.

Closed the shop doors up tight. Not going back in there until I smell the stench of a dead snake.

My shop was a disaster...junk everywhere. I cleaned up 95% of it, but of course the snake fell into the only remaining pile of junk and boxes.

Yup! It's on the phone right now calling an army of fellow rat snakes to come get him!
