[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 84955, member: 637"] It is a Gray Rat Snake. According to my snake book, the ones in Texas have a yellow and gray coloring with brown to blackish markings with orange sometimes showing up between the scales. It says this is the coloring in those found in Texas and Louisana. The picture in my snake book is almost identical to your snake. The pattern is the same. He is a good snake and I would have put him in a feed sack and carried him to the barn. He will put a hurtin' on the mice and rats since it says he is a strong constrictor. The only two poisonous snakes here in my area are Copperheads and Water Moccosins. Copperheads will make you sick if they bite, or will make you swell up, but won't kill you. The Water Moccosins have a poison that will make your involuntary muscles stop which includes your heart and lungs. It warns not to mess around if one of these bites you because these can kill you. Either one of these two, I will gladly cut it's head off. All the rest can hang around. [/QUOTE]
