So my wife and I were at the local wally world which is right down the street and we get a call from our daughter who was home and she said dad I think your snake is out and I said "WHATTTTT!" she said its in the kitchen and its orange, Ill be right there, I flew home only to find that Santa Claus came a little early and dropped off a present!

It was a wild corn snake a local variety just sitting in my kitchen hangin out, it came through the pet door we have in the kitchen going out to the lanai, So I grabbed it and it bit me a few times no big deal but it was pissed when I went for it!

Notice the color alot of yellow and orange and very little black! This is a local South west Florida Corn snake they mostly all look like this if caught in the wild around here!

[RobbiesCornField]

Sarasota where were you at?

I was down in the Naples area visiting family. I've found corns that look very similar to that one down in that area.

Wow! That's awesome! I can't really say great catch...it found its way to you! Very pretty too!

 

[Outcast]

What happened was, your snake thought everyone was out of the house and called its friend over for a party... They never expected to be caught...

Pffff give the government a little time and there will be!lol!:fullauto:

Cool! Even a pet cornsnake might bite if it escapes and gets recaptured, so that isn't really a sign that it is a bitey snake. Very pretty!!

I wish I could keep it but I simply just dont have the room, so I am going to feed him/her and give it a few days to digest then let it go! that should give it a good start!

There is a cold front coming Wed. here so I want to wait till that blows over, right now I have it in a rubbermaid on a heating pad.

You know, if you feed a stray, it will keep coming back! Maybe it will end up being an "outdoor" snake.:rofl:
