Hognose. These are the coolest snakes. They'll play dead after trying to convince you they're a cobra.

Third night in a row in front of my house. Probably not the same one, but my wife is not pleased that I'm not killing them.

In my yard...it would be dispatched with prejudice. I and mine don't tolerate flesh rot, swollen limbs and agonizing pain.

Niece's husband dispatched him because she is a complete pain in the ass about her prissy little dog. Still trying to educate everyone that not all snakes are bad. Rockport area.

Snake had a mouse he was dealing with. Rat snake? Seems pretty lightly colored.

Tell your niece that rat poison kills more dogs than a rat snake ever did. Of course you knew that.

Been a fairly good amount of snakes here. I've started to Just remove problem copperheads right around the front walk and carport, the others remove themselves before dawn, generally speaking. Lots of rat snakes trying to get in the hen house.

Had to dispose of a five footer that hung itself the other day trying to crawl up and inside. It got its head tangled in the anti-hawk netting I have draped over the 20x20 chicken pen I made, and couldn't back out, and died just hanging there. Found it a few hours later.

Also nearly mowed a small black and white (salt and pepper) speckled juvenile snake. Coach whip?

How big were the speckles? First thought was speckled kingsnake, but the dots are usually yellow on those. If the "speckles" were large than dots, could it have been a buttermilk racer?

Looked more like a speckled king snake but the speckles seemed more random than patterned, but very fine.

Common Kingsnake maybe?

Juvenile coachwhip or racer most likely.

Could it be a butternilk with the spots? Wasn't sure if they were that dark as juveniles.

Juvenile racers of all subspecies look similar (and very dissimilar from adult racers). They also look similar to juvenile coachwhips which also look dissimilar from the adult coachwhip. It'd be nearly impossible to tell a juvenile buttermilk from one of the more common yellow bellied racer subspecies around the state.

I'm a snake fan and generally a do no harm type, but yeah, that (and any other) copperheads around our house would get the shovel treatment.

I've stated on almost every snake thread. I'm a BIG sneck fan but if there are kids or pets anywhere close venomous snakes gets the garden hoe.

I don't see any rattles. You must have a lot of hogs.
