Older photo I just found. A while back I discussed the suspected copperhead playing hide and seek in an Oak tree at the lease.

Also the other day my parents found a snake in their bathroom, it was killed as you can see but what was it. I apologize for the horror in the photo...

Looks like a Hognose.

I'd call that an inch of a Texas brown snake (not a bathroom joke, serious answer)

.38REV's test question asked for species (check) AND location (?). I do not know if he gives partial credit.

This guy was on a rice field road on the coast. I believed it to be a cotton mouth, but there seems to be some differing opinions!

.38, 12f Mane is the snake guy. If he says it is a hognose, it would be a hognose. Based on a lot of input in this thread, hognose have some interesting characteristics. For example when they are threatened they first play cobra, which can be a bit unnerving when you first see their display. If that does not work, they roll over and play dead, which makes some funny YouTube videos.

Listen to 12f Mane. The dot pattern on the side are sort of a giveaway.

I'm going to be out at the lease and see a cottonmouth, think awww hell, I know what I'm looking at, Texags has taught me that is 100% a hognose or rat snake. Then get bit and be effed.

ETA: in reality I'll avoid all snakes. Just funny how I look at them differently after following this thread. And I am actually getting a lot better at identifying them because of it to. Guessed hognose on the last one.

Hognose it is then!



Same road, different snake, but I'm pretty sure this one isn't a Hognose.

Just to be clear, a cottonmouth and water moccasin are the same thing. Right?

Is that a yellow bullhead catfish that your snake is trying to eat? Haven't seen one of those in a long, long time

Observed dietary requirements are important for snake identification, no?
