Re: My Trip
i dont no the exact length of it because i didn't handle the snake. i would say from looking it would have to be at least very close to 5 foot and was very thick and did not once rattle.

Re: My Trip
buttons don't indicate the age of the snake. They get a new one every shed.

Re: My Trip

we do, but I've never seen one or heard of someone having an encounter with one. I've seen praries and Western massasaugas, but never timbers
