Cool! I am soaking up as much as I can about these snakes. I knew there was western and eastern but not southern!!! I have seen pics of totally black easterns, that would be a sweet snake to have, then I wouldn't have to the a mexican black kingsnake lol.

Gorgeous, Is it true that the southerns are smaller than the western and eastern?

Thanks for sharing, loving this little cutie pie!:)

Yes, southerns are indeed the smallest of the 3. Adult females are usually no larger than 22" or so with males smaller yet.
There are exceptions of course...;)
I think there are still some older photos on an older photo site of mine

Oh I like that!! Lovely mineral too, I collect minerals but I don`t recognise that. Looks almost like an oceanic agate of some sort....

I agree, I wouldn't mind having one! :)The only ones I see for sale in Canada are the Western Hognose, Easterns are illegal here!

lol...why would hey be illegal. Silly governments!

If they are native species they are protected, there are some garter snakes, and turtles that you can't have as pets because they are protected. Something like that!
