What kind is this guy? I work in the horticulture building on A&M's campus and one of the cleaning ladies found him in a trash bin inside the building. She wanted him dead ASAP, so I obliged. He was very aggressive even before I was trying to kill him.

Circular pupil indicates a non-venomous species. That's all i got.

Hard to tell on my phone but it appears to be a rat snake with a lighter color pattern.

It was 100% harmless.

Not always the case (in general i.e. the world over), but Coral snakes are the only ones in the states that don't follow this statement.

I figured it was, but I wasn't positive.

Am I the only one wondering if there were experiments performed on that snake?

He's well fed is what he is. If she sees a rat tell her you refuse to kill it since she might put you down next time.

I was doing some research on different types of water snakes and came across this video. I don't recall seeing it posted on this thread before. If it was, you can enjoy it again. Pretty neat stuff.

I usually send this pic out to people who get confused between the venomous cottonmouth and non-venomous water snake.

I don't know how many people have told me they killed a cottonmouth and they show me a pic of it. Only for me to tell them it wasn't a venomous cottonmouth but a harmless non venomous water snake.

from page 9 of this thread.

Earless lizard..... Interesting yet seemingly unnecessary, description.

Would be like Texas "legless" Brown Snake.

Cool pic either way! Thanks for sharing.

Found 3 legit cottonmouths in Dallas this morning. All are still alive, one briefly showed off, and damned wouldn't you know it, none of them chased me.

I was doing a balancing act through the swamp, playing dodge the poison ivy, so no pictures.

You obviously must be lying. We all know that snakes only chase you and want to kill your first born. (Obviously tongue in cheek).

Yeah it is. I told her to watch out for her Boston Terriers. Looks like they could be a snack in the future

I'm going to go strictly off the tail looking like a whip and say coachwhip.

But I have no idea.
