I received two snake identification requests this week.  The first was found in Central Florida under a seat cushion on my parents’ porch.  The second is a DOR (roadkilled) snake ID request that Jason received from a friend in New Orleans, Louisiana. Any guesses?

  1. Central Florida snake to identify –

My neighbor just sent me this photo of a snake found in an outdoor electrical box.  It doesn’t officially feel like spring until I get my first snake ID request, thanks Thomas!  This picture was taken in central Florida – any guesses as to what kind of snake it is?
