No sir, that's a hognose.
Anyone ID this guy? Picture isn't the best. Posted on community FB page. Buda, TX
Also, stumbled upon this on another FB page dedicated to snakes. Pretty cool. Moccasin on moccasin.
That's a green anole!
That's a nope rope.
Yellow bellied racer

Got damn 4 foot rat snake killed one of my poults. I had forgotten to close them up in the chicken house before I made a late grocery run. By the time I got back, a rat snake had already found them, grabbed, and constricted one, and was trying to figure out how to swallow it.
Sometimes you learn the hard way: chickens go up at dusk or before. Fortunately, my chicken house is a snake proof design when they're actually in it: 1/4 hardware mesh, no snake can get in, not even the copperhead that was also lurking around.
They both were allowed to live through my magnanimous beneficence.
Still irks me.

Most of it is inside the first one.
Thank you!!! Now I see.
I didn't realize they ate their own. Other snakes yes but not each other. That is fascinating.
I thought at first the head was perhaps on the other snake.

I dispatch Copperheads on a regular basis, smashed a young ones head this past Saturday and the little fugger was still trying to run me down.
Found a beautiful and big Coral snake while out on the bike a while back but it did not sit still for a photo op...I have only seen one the past decade but they would get relocated if found in the neighborhood.

Katy Texas. Could not positively ID but I do not think they are cottonmouths. Any experts determine whether they were eating something or mating?

Wyndehaven Lakes Estates off of Roesner and Westheimer Parkway
On the other side of Buffalo Bayou from you west on Roesner. Most of the lakes in our area are full of DBWS and BBWS
when things open up again, let's meet for a beer or two. I usually go to Mo's Irish Pub. My name is Brett.ttha_aggie_09 said:

Hope pic uploads
Mother-in-law and sister-in-law were clearing brush around farm pond in Lavaca county. Best pic the SIL could get. Probably an easy ID for most but I am not sure. Black snake with yellow bands.

It does. I haven't posted via imgur before so I'm figuring it out.
Broad-banded water snake

That is a difficult pic to ID from , but in that area and environment with keeled scales as it appears to have and that pattern. I will say I'm about 90% sure that is a broad banded water snake.
Edit: Well ttha beat me to it.

Thanks, y'all. Here's another one: brother lives in Charlotte, NC and one quarantine day they came upon a "cottonmouth." I'm not positive it's a cottonmouth but I also know nothing about North Carolina snakes. The head is circled in first photo.
black ratsnake
I figured it was non venomous. Nothing about it screamed cottonmouth to me at all. Thanks!
I see you BBWSnek
Yellow bellied water snek?
DBWS - based on the first picture only. The second is inconclusive, on mobile.
