    Arrow Coachwhip

    I went for a little walk today and found a Coachwhip. It at first tried to bite me but I took my hat off and threw over its head and caught it. Surprisingly it became very calm and docile after I held it for a few minutes.


    When I first picked it up


    Looks like it will eat my dogs in this pic LOL


    Check out the beautiful belly scales


    It made some nice poses for me. I thought about keeping it but turned it loose


    Another pic of the face


    Wanting to explore

    He's a beauty! What an awesome catch! (I'll bet he's very glad you let him go, though! )

    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
    Then you Stand

    Re: Coachwhip

    That has to be the most sculpted head I've ever seen on any snake! That would have been very hard to turn loose!
