Got back to camp and went to get something out of my pack I carry around with me. Reached in and surprisingly felt something cold and moving!!!! I am getting to old for surprises like this!!!!!!

| What kind of snake is it? Markings look like a Great Plains Rat Snake, but head looks kind of triangular. |

Difficult to tell on my phone, but almost looks like a dull colored copperhead. _________________ JJ |

I think it was cobra!!! Or maybe a black mamba!!!!!
Im no snake expert but I was told it was a small rat snake. I'm really not a snake hater, I pretty much let them do their own thing as long as they follow the rules. Don't try and bite me! Don't scare my girls or try to live in my trailer or stands. And you dang sure better not be all cozy in something I just took off my back 10 minutes before!!!!!!
Funny thing is we have had tons of shed skins in and around our trailers this year. Haven't seen a whole lot of live ones lately but lots of the skins.... |

You would have got your moneys worth! It generally takes quite a bit to spook, rattle, or scare me but this got me! I think I squeeled like a lil gurl and may have peed a little!!!!  |
