    Baby Brown Snake...<3 *pix*

    Well, I was originally going to open a thread to help identify this little guy, but I'm now pretty satisfied it's a brown snake. Now, pictures!







    Isn't he an absolute cutie? His little tongue was going a mile a minute, and he was extremely inquisitive. Poor little guy had a stuck shed, but it just rained, so I'm sure it'll work its way off soon.

    I let him go near where I found him after the little photoshoot...<3

    That's an adult right there. You should see fresh born babies. Talk about tiny....

    I produced a few litters as a kid and had to cut worms into small pieces to feed them. I don't think I have ever seen a smaller snake in my life.

    That would be the Eastern Brown Snake.
    "Brown Snake" is a name commonly given to several different species, one being of the colubrid family in North America and sometimes Mexico.

    As far as I understand..
    I may be corrected if I am wrong.

    EDIT: Also, I am not good at identifying native snakes in North America, so I'm not agreeing that what the OP found is actually a Brown Snake of the genus Storeria.. I'll leave the identifying to others.

    Thank you, Garweft! Yeeeah, I figured it was probably an adult after reading up on them a little...it's just so hard to not view them as babies!! hehehe. Such cuties.

    And thanks everyone! I would love to keep one someday, lol. Right now I'm actually headed to Topeka, KS to catch some Italian Wall Lizards. I'm so excited!!
