Re: Snake Identification

My guess is a bullsnake but the photo is blurry so I can't really tell. Do you have any other pictures?

Re: Snake Identification

Texas Rat Snake (Western Rat Snake/Pantherophis obsoletus) all the way. Very common and completely harmless.

I was thinking the same thing, but the picture is to blurry to be 100% sure.

Re: Snake Identification

Looks more like a bullsnake than a rat snake to me. The photo is very blurry though.
