My dog found this little milksnake at my house yesterday evening. In all my years of living in the country and handling snakes in this area, this is the first one I have every found. I released it in my field.

Very cool. I think I have only ever seen 2 of them in my life and one was in La Salle County.

Good for you. 99% of the people would think it was a coral snake and kill it.

That's a beauty. Must have shed very recently. We call them Coral King Snakes around my neck of the woods.
