Looks like one that would be as high has your hat.

The end of the tail always throws me for a loop!! I think its venomous but I am wrong.

When it's that kind of pattern, I get confused between rat and bull, but it's definitely not a nope rope of any kind.

You have me curious. What did you think it was when you killed it?

Regardless of what it was, I wouldn't have killed it. My brother-in-law in law killed it.

Wonder why the rat snake is also called a chicken snake?

Edit - At first glance I thought this was in a chicken coop but that's not the case. Statement is still true

Looks like it just wanted to come in out of the rain.

Looks like a large snake crawling on the cord for your suspended lighting. That's crazy!

Found this guy trying to help The husband by cutting the grass. Glad I knew what it was. Of course when I got the husband to come kill it, it was gone.

It looks like you got it at least a little with the weed eater... That might be enough to take it out slowly.

I'm not good enough to ID just from the belly. What is that? Water moccasin??

I assumed copperhead. I saw it after it flipped over.

Found this guy coiled at the base of one of my pecan trees. About 24". Was pretty cranky.

I stepped out the back door to play fetch with the dog, the ball leaves my hand as soon as I'm out the door. Mid throw I see this guy near where I'm throwing to, my thought was, "oh crap!" I have had a dog bitten by a rattle snake before.

I quickly got the dog inside so I could get a better look.

King snake, I believe, 3.5 to 4 feet long. Didn't have much inclination to move, once he finally did, he shook his tail like a rattler the quickly made an exit.

Thanks, it looked like some king snake pictures I've seen, but rat snake will work.

I can ID the venomous ones that inhabit my yard.

My telltale on the rat(if he's not high as your hat) is the "kinky" body

King snakes have small heads. Also the give away for me is the shape of its blotches. Some describe them as sheriff badges.

The snake returned tonight. This time, my pup discovered him. My big, brave guard dog is apparently terrified of snakes. I'm not upset about that. Even when I got him to the back door 40' from the snake, he wouldn't sit, he was checking to make sure the snake wasn't sneaking up behind him. Finally, he did sit, but facing where he last saw the snake.
