Help. I’m in Wisconsin. What kind of snake is this. Was outside my breeder aviary and very aggressive. Went after birds and didn’t care that I was there. Just about five feet long.

it's some type of garter snake, completely harmless, and I wouldn't worry about it. Since you speak of it in past tense I assume you already dealt with it, but in general these species is nothing to be afraid of.

I agree with some type of garter or possibly ribbon (genus Thamnophis for sure). Harmless to humans but might have been after chicks or eggs.

Eastern garter snake, probably less than three feet long. Unable to eat any but the tiniest birds.

agreed. I don't think this is large enough snake to really be a threat to any birds (even something like chicken chicks I would think would be too large...)
