by far the most common snakes i found in the area as a kid were coachwhips and bullsnakes. I could usually find one or the other daily despite herping at what some consider bad times and having no idea what i was doing.

behind those two, probably western diamond backs, great plains rats, TX rats, and red stripe ribbons if i was near a natural/man-made pond. my grandfather had a huge stock tank/ pond for his cattle and it was always crawling with red stripe ribbons... finding 10 in an hour was easy.

didnt see any "cool" things like desert kings, alterna, and hogs til i got a little older and began paying attention to things like weather, temps, time of year.

brought a coachwhip onto the school bus when i was in 5th grade... hilarity ensued. no damage done to kids or snake... except my ear drums from all the screaming.
