herping in my kitchen??? New buddy!

I found him in my kitchen this morning... Not quite sure what I'm going to do with him, more than likely my collection just got an itsy bitsy bit bigger. Oh yea... He's a little testy.

awesome find!

Hey.. he came to you.. :) I don't know if he could be considered "wild-caught.." ;)

o so why arnt i finding pieds and clowns and killerbees ( all ball pythons) in my kitchen SO NOT FAIR... thats awesome man, kinda weird but awesome. now you have to find out how he got in

no joke... I mean... I plan to do some herping on my doorstep in the next couple of days... but those come in comfy boxes. I wasn't expecting to find a little milksnake while reaching for a pot to make my dora the explorer spaghetti'os.... sheesh.

Nice find! I am going to go check my kitchen lol.

Is that one of the mountain kingsnakes? I dont know which locality.

I couldn't tell you... I know NOTHING about milksnake localities. Although I gotta admit I'm curious.

I was JUST noticing your cool avatar, Ben...then saw this thread. How cool is that??? Such a pretty little noodle!

As for locality...you're still at College Station, aren't you? (If I remember right?) If so...I guess just figure out which ones are local to South Texas. Unless, maybe, he's someone's escaped pet?

check this site out, just pick where you live.

http://www.kingsnake.com/mtnking/index2.html

what a pretty one!

id be hard pressed to let that lil one go!

The link didn't show Texas ranges... so my guess is that he must be a pet of someones that got free... and judging from a couple minutes of googling I "think" he's a Sinaloan Milk Snake. Although certain, I am not.

I know its not a sinaloan, I had a sinaloan (actually nelsons) and it does not look like one to me. To me it looks like an arizona mountain kingsnake.

well see... glad I wasn't certain! lol

EDIT: It does sorta look like a arizona mountain kingsnake, although it has very thin black lines. Maybe it's just one of the "individuality" things.

Lucky you!!!! I'm in the process of trying to get the kitchen clean....think I will go finish and check all the nooks and crannies :D

Ummm how old are you? :weirdface :weirdface.See you gave that pup a new home now everyone is coming your way.Congrats Dr Doolittle :8: :8:

You are lucky. I normally have to surch for herp and they come looking for you!:bow:

The only snakes I find around here are copperheads and I tend to give them their space. I want to go herping in my kitchen and find an adorable snake like that. Think all I'll find in my kitchen is cobwebs and a itty bitty spider or two.

old enough to have my own doorstep. (damn I hate paying rent for it though...)

haha... yea, I've been called Dr. Doolittle before. at my apartment I currently have 2 rats, 2 ferrets, 4 snakes (2 more coming, and one back at my parents), and baby the pitbull. lol. My roommates LOVE me, haha.

Sure looks like a pyro to me. They're great snakes and one of the prettiest too.

Try him on pinkies in a week or so but he may hold out for lizards. Mice are much easier to get out here so that's what I feed mine.

Cool find.

Yea :weirdface :rolleyes: :8:,take 2 aspirans and dont call me in the morning :rofl:

I wouldn't anyways... talking to my ex girlfriends, retired marine sniper father about why I left her would be FAR more interesting... :fork:

on a more on topic note... I was taking a closer look at the snake earlier today and noticed that one of his stripes only crosses halfway over his back... and so his name is "Joe" because he ain't perfect, but I love him anyways! :rolleyes:
