Hi everyone, When I usually post a question on the listserve, I like to reply personally to every response. However, due to the overwhelming responses I had today, I would like to re-post thanking all of you at once who replied. I apologize for the laziness of it, but there were so MANY wonderful responses that I would be here half the night! Thank you all so much! The information I attained from you all was fantastic!
The case in every reply was that of a Red-bellied, or Northern Red-bellied Snake. Very, very cool! The snake was very tame, and I like to look for snakes as kind of a side hobby. I just don't know too much about them. Some said the species is very secretive, while others stated that it is pretty common, with a few reports being seen here within Rice County just this week! Apparently, the size which I saw, about 10-12 inches, is about as big as they get. And I received one photo of a Red-bellied Snake, and that is definitely what I saw. Great stuff! Thanks again to all of you!!!
