Hello! We found this little guy in my friend's basement a while back and set him free after taking a couple pictures...They're not the greatest, but any idea what he is? He looks like a corn snake to me, but seems kind of unusual coloring for a corn...

He's/She's a King snake I believe.........

[JinxtheBP]

He looks kinda similar to this one, which is a normal cornsnake hatchling...

Nope, he's white with dark red and black outlines. :)

I'm pretty sure that's a cornsnake, with the head shape. I have a kingsnake and the head is not like that at all. I'd go with what JinxtheBP said- looks like a dead ringer to me. Cute little guy anyway.

I think it's an Eastern Milksnake baby.

Aaron S, you may be right! Here's an E. Milksnake hatchling...They look pretty close...These are much more similar, I think. But the one I found was creamy/white, rather than grayish...But I've never seen a corn snake with a gray/white base and red/black saddles like that! I think Aaron S may be on to something :)

All the pictures above are IDed as Eastern Milksnakes.

I am sticking to it. Eastern Milksnake. Widely found and can vary in slight tones upon the "normal" look.

..... what about Miami or Okatee (sp?) corn snake phase hatchlings, the banded variety? just putting it out there, been looking at a lot of corn hatchlings lately >.>
