An Eastern Milksnake I found a few years ago.

I've only found 2 of these in my life. One was near my house and the other near Knoebels up north lol I kept this guy for a few days then released him on my property.

I love the babies. I found one when I was around 10 and when I went to put it in a jar to take it home I left the top off at the park and it crawled out.

Re: An Eastern Milksnake I found a few years ago.

This year hasn't turned up much for me except for 2 lifers; a northern ringneck and a queensnake. None of the usual water snakes or black rats except for one I got out of my uncles wood shed. Otherwise its just been about 25-30 eastern garters.

When they reach about 2 months of age they look like this.. believe me, it dulls dramatically with age.

Wow, it's such a shame they dull down with age- that red is gorgeous.

If mine breed again, that may not be entirely true.

I am still on the lookout for ringnecks here's saw a baby this summer but I would really like to see a yearling or adult. My buddy just bought a horse with 16 acres and they claim to have a lot of snakes on the property. Hr said I can go snooping but they won't close until December. Guess im waiting for spring.

Infernalis; PA has dumb laws. I guess maybe I could if they are morphs, I talked to Shannon Culp on facebook once and she told me that if they are morphs you can buy them. But otherwise you can't buy/sell/or trade natives.

Coffee Black; That sucks, I've never found an adult either, usually their always like 4 inches. I'll post pics of the queen,garters,and ringneck shortly.

Does anyone know what the reasoning behind this is? I've always wondered.

I don't know, mostly to stop people from taking them from the wild. But ik people who have had eastern garter and black rat morphs shipped to them.
