while walking in the dunes of northwest indiana on mother's day 1999 I found one of the largest snakes i have seen in all my years of herping. it was a female blue racer, she was 6ft plus with an attitude to match her size. I took her home for a few weeks where she laid 27 perfect eggs, shortly after that I released in the same juniper bush that I found her. 26/27 eggs hatched out, leaving me with 28 babies which were also released. it was a great experiance! by the way, thats no typeO two of the eggs hatched out twins!
