    Identify this Mystery Colubrid!

    I'm stumped. It was a rescue at my zoo and was about the size of an adult bull snake (you can see the socket for size comparison) but we had no idea what it was.
    We're thinking a hybrid of some sort???

    Fla. King X Corn is my guess.

    Idk but in the second picture I definitely see the Corn pattern
    The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.

    I'm not a huge colubrid expert, but I can definitely see some kind of corn in there. If it's not full, then I'm not the person to be asking lol Really good looking though!

    Re: Identify this Mystery Colubrid!

    Im not sure but to me it looks like a brooks kingsnake, bull snake hybrid. The pattern looks like a brooks with a faint bull snake pattern. And the head looks like a bull snake. But I could be wrong. Here's pics of each species.

    The gloss likely comes from a king of sorts and the look comes from the corn is my guess
