Meet Larry the smallest snake with a big attitude

Nicole spotted this guy(ok could be a girl) at the barn, you can't really see his markings very well, but he has a light colored body, dark head and a yellow stripe around his neck. Don't really know what kind it is and would they have babies this time of year?



McDonalds sweet tea cup for size comparison:

Looks to be a Ringneck Snake. They usually have colorful bellies also. I'm pretty certain that's what it is. I've caught many of those, babies and adults.

Sounds like an Eastern Ring Neck and he does look like a recent hatchling.

His head looked like that but his body was a totally different color than his body, if he's a baby it may come later.

Nicole was so funny, he was where the cars park so she followed him to make sure he made it to safety without any problems.

We were all teasing her and asking her if she wants to take him home too!

We have brought 2 homeless guinea pigs home, an auction bunny and Huck in the last few months!
