Found a pretty one herping today!

Was out turkey hunting today and almost stepped on this guy ;)

He seems very tame and is a real cuddler ;) He makes a purring sound when i pet him!

Anyone know what this is?

what a beaut'

Lol cuddling and purring!! That means he really wants to give you a kiss! ;)

I believe is a juvenile Carolina Pigmy Rattlesnake - Sistrurus miliarius.... 99% sure :cool:

Beware of the buzzing purr!!:O

Aw, what a cutie! Wouldn't we all love to cuddle with his little face? :D

Bwahaha I bet he's cuddly! He'll snuggle right up:P

They are cuddly.. when i was living in Florida I played with Pygmies... Till i checked in Field Guide what I'm playing with :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Looks like a pyg to me.

Yepper its a pygmy. Funny thing was I didn't think we had them up here in North GA. I've come timber rattlers but not a pygmy...the rattle was soooooo small....

To be honest - you could not get him to strike....he put up with my minor annoyance like a champ. .BUT - a good reminder to wear good boots in the woods - even in GA...
