What kind of snake?

Featured Replies

Any input? Looks a good size in this pic but it is actually small and baby.

Hard to tell from picture.  If the head is not shaped like a triangle and the eyes are round not oblong with peaked ends like a cat's eye, and there are not noticeable "pits" on the nose, it mostly likely is non-poisonous.  My guess based on the picture is it is just a normal brown ground snake, Quite common around here.

Ring neck. Technically mildly venomous but does not affect people

NJ.COM has a story today with pictures showing all (I think it was 21) snakes native to NJ.

Lol well they love my house! Thankfully you said no harmful to humans because I tend to just pick them up and move them to my woods. I own a ball python so when I see these little guys I wasn't nervous.

I love finding snakes in and around my home as well as out while I'm hiking and or searching for them. I'm a snake/reptile person also, I've bread various subspecies of boas for over 20 years. As well as many other reptiles, amphibians, insects and arachnids over the years. 

 Only two venomous snakes in New Jersey that are dangerous to humans are Northern copperheads and Timber rattlesnakes. 

 

I had a snake or 2 when I was younger but I'm not a big fan at all of finding snakes in or near my house....lol

Haven't found those two yet, and hopefully not lol. I will agree with you and love finding them and owning. I'm a big animal/nature guy so seeing any animal in the wild is awesome. The girlfriend freaks out here and there, but when I showed her that little guy and then she looked at my BP she was like "ok that's not that bad" lol.

My wife doesn't mind looking at them while they're in cages but out in the wild or if I take them out of the cages she's not a fan at all.

You should have seen her when a 12ft Columbian red-tail escaped from its cage and ripped a white Marlin mount off my wall. She locked herself in the laundry room lol

They're really heathy if they are around your house(not inside) because they control rodents.

"Snakes, why did it have to be snakes?"

"Asps, very dangerous. You go first!"

WTF? face look, priceless!
