What do we have here!

ok lets start with the story. my pops was cleaning up around his shop and he found 4 eggs they were clearing off the land so i had to move them i put them in my incubator just to see what happened and give them a chance. and tonight they started to pip. i cut the eggs carefully incase they are poisonous. but what are they i live in central louisiana. going by their head they look harmless but im treating them like a black momba lol.

i did some googlin and all i can see pattern wise is some sort of kingsnake but i have not found one that color.

i don't think that's a kingsnakes head...they have more neck than they do head! but then again i've never seen one RIGHT out of the egg, so their proportions may change

i dont know i was just going by the pattern on the head thats all i got so far.

Looks like some sort of ratsnake to me.

yea it looks like a grey rat. does anyone know any thing about them

OH i understand now! i thought you meant your dad was cleaning out his "snake shop" for some reason and found some random eggs!! if they're wild-caught (is it considered "catching" them while they're still in the egg, lol!) then i would say rat snake for sure.
