>>I have been looking for info on how to tell the difference between corn, king, milk and rat snakes but everything looks the same to me .. Is there any specific things you look for to tell them apart ?..
>>
>>thx

get some good guides.
Basic tidbits....Milks and Kings have single anal plate. Corns and rats have divided, they also tend to have more than 25 rows of scales.

Keying out snakes local to me is easy...upstate NY doesn't have all that much in anything but a milk and a rat. Garters, waters...nothing really keen and colorful.
