Koby Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Anyone know what this is? I've been told several different types but none of them seem very conclusive when compared to what I've seen and know as well as compared to other pictures on the internet. It certainly does not look like a Copperhead, and it doesn't look like the Cottonmouths I'm accustomed to in our area. This snake showed up in my backyard today. The picture makes the colors look a bit off... The underbody was pretty much yellow; while the rest of the snake was like a faded brownish-gray and looked pretty pale almost as if he was covered in dirt.

† L4ugh Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Probably a Diamond-Backed Water Snake? I would have to agree with this. The faded colors could have to do with it getting ready to shed it's skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renzo Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I agree with the others. Definitely looks like some sort of diamondback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
