Looks like to me. Good snakes to have around.


I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

It was killed in Austin. Found under my grand dad's grill coiled up.

It's not a rat snake. Bull snake. Bad azz to have around.

Quite possibly

Too many people have that "only good snake is a dead snake" mentality. If you have snakes around your house you likely have rodents. If you leave them be they'll do their job.

Good thing you killed that non venomous snake. Probably saved countless lives.
