yep, coming around a corner in the middle of nowhere in the west virginia mountains to see wyndzer running at me with a 5 foot black snake is a bit unnerving:(

he came close that day to seeing what getting run over felt like:D

[trick250r]

so are they dangerous or anything?

[Pappy]

they arent poisonous but carry the same precautions as bats, rats etc.

Believe this is a corn snake guys...

The head on yours is also much bigger and thicker than a corn snake....

get a pic from straight down, it could well be a milk snake. from the posted pic it looks like its pattern is spread out.

I checked all variations of the corn snake and its patterns none have that color / pattern, close on the pattern but not really that close.

Plus like i said the head from what i can make out on his pictures looks wider than a cornsnakes head.

Its a corn snake just a morph of a corn snake which means the coloration is changed. just release him were u found him hes a good mice catcher.

[hardkoratvmxr]

well for me it is kinda hard to de[pict what it is shooting out of the lawn mower blades in abotu a billion pieces:D

Looks like a king snake to me.

[raptorman2001]

[trick250r]

What snakes spend alot of the time in the water?i seen one swimming at my lakehouse this past weekend and had to be at least 3ft long,it really didnt look like a water snake,i wanted to shoot it with the bow,but my dad said no let it live:huh

[stevez400]

Its a corn snake. They are actually pretty rare in WV! Sell it on ebay $500. Hey all you WV people wanna be in a book go out and find a northern pine snake. Only 2 northern pine snakes have ever been seen in West Virginia, both killed on the same road on the same day in Monroe County in 1940. Or a good way to get people to stop building in areas that you wanna ride (if thats a problem). Find one of these snakes and then say you found it there. They would immediatly have to stop what there doing and wouldnt be able to continue!

Corn Snake - and a pretty one! :) I have had two of them (still have one)......just let it go - he's harmless and he will get really stressed if you try to keep him in captivity. If you want to buy Corn Snake (they are also called Rat Snakes) though - buy one from a snake breeder or pet store. They make great snakes - easy to feed, easy to take care of - real mellow..........

[dirtriderex]

Well It may be a fox snake, but due to the little strip going across it's head it's most likely a corn snakehttp://www.repticzone.net/images/12517/Sierra001.jpg

I want!

I say bar-b-que its *** and feed it to your dog.

Like you said Pappy ... it's a milk snake . I worked at a Large Science Center in town here , and I was in the wildlife department .... I've handled milk snakes exactly like that one .

[trick250r]

i didn't drown it in gas. i let it go near a creek that runs close to my house.
