Corn snake?
You don't see this (male hemepenes) every day. The result of pulling apart two unfortunate snakes who were in the mating process when they were accidentally killed by some folks moving equipment from a shed. On the FB page where I first saw it, one of the admins mentioned that snake pen i ses could vary quite a bit from species to species to the point where they could be used in some cases for a snake ID. She also mentioned it as being the reason that for example a and how for example a Cottonmouth and Ratsnake can't interbreed because the "key doesn't fit the lock so to speak".

So is the snake's umm snake totally internal until needed? Just trying to figure out where it goes when not in use.

An *******.
From what I've read today, it is usually held "inverted", inside the body until time to get busy.mrsbeer05 said:

We need to come up with a catchy mnemonic about "if it climbs, it's a rat snake."

Here's a fitting quiz that popped up on my Facebook feed. They made it too easy (except one that had the same answer twice...) I don't think you have to go through Facebook to get to it.

I suck at ID'ing snakes but that quiz made me feel like a bad ass. All I had to ask myself was does it look more like a cobra or a boa... It was always the cobra.

From that I learned there is a sh*t ton of cobra species and never to visit Australia.
Well, I saw my first rattlesnake in my backyard after 5 years. About 2-3 feet. The dog ran up to it and then I heard the rattle. Luckily she listened and came right back.
We have seen a number of non-venomous snakes, but a rattlesnake has me worried. I've got 4 kids and we don't need to have someone get bit.
Any thoughts about what to do? And no, we are not going to burn it all down.

Educate your kids on where snakes like to hide and what to do if they encounter a snake. Make sure your kids know not to just pick up stuff that may hide a snake or reach into right spaces they can't see.
Aside from that, the only preventive measure you can take is removing prey.

I juvie copperhead, 1 brown snake.
Thank you. We have talked about snakes with the kids and not to pick up snakes, however we didn't talk about hiding places. Great idea.
As for prey, not sure what is out there. The only rodents I've seen are squirrels. We do have a skunk and ring tail cat who like our yard recently too. They are after the grubs I think.
It's a freaking wildlife preserve right now!

I saw that story yesterday and thought, that bar probably has mice or rats.

Do you need me to send you some sparkly paint pens?
I assumed it was going to be kids playing in the dunes. If he was walking on a bridge over the dunes that's just bad luck
I've learned they are very lively when it is warm out. I'm not sure I want to be handling them the way I would have to to mark them. I suppose I could ice them down to make them sluggish for a while.
Put them in your freezer!
