It is so easy to be wrong—and to persist in being wrong—when the costs of being wrong are paid by others.

That's how bad he wants to be left alone. He's literally escaping through poison ivy. Any interaction after those warnings puts you in the Darwin Award category.

The rattlesnakes up there use more venom than the ones in Texas...the ones here save theirs in case they get found by feral hogs when they rattle.

Gonna try and post the pic. Forgive me if this takes a few edits.

Stumbled upon this one with my 3.5 yo while walking our land yesterday. I'm almost positive on the ID but will withhold and let others guess. Location: lavaca and Fayette county line.

Is that a coachwhip?

That is the way I was leaning based on the eye and the scale texture, but the triangular head shape with those fat jaws is confusing me. Not used to seeing such a prominent head on a racer.

That would be a pretty thicc coachwhip / racer.

I agree. My very first thought when I saw the picture was "rat snake crinkle", but I have never heard of them being solid brown like that in the US. Is it some weird morph of a rat snake?

I thought so, too. I've found a full shed twice already this year, wondering if it's about to shed again? Or is the lack of a distinct pattern on this one normal?

ttha_aggie_09 gave y'all the biggest clue you can get without outright giving it away.

Agree, couple of traits had me hesitate on this one briefly.

I turned to my husband and said the snake tread is going to have a field day with this

Correct. Hognose is what I identified it as, though it took me a second. My immediate reaction was to grab my toddler as we were walking. After running through my check-downs I knew it wasn't venomous but couldn't name it until I saw the nose up close. He/she was very docile! We just caught it getting some heat in the sun. It scurried on its way after a few mins.

Size was one of the traits that had me thrown briefly. Seems like a big 'un for sure.

It's pretty funny when the big ones play dead. They are better at it than the little guys.

I found one once that was 38" long and had a 4-5" hood. It was impressive.
