You know you could be right!! After looking a little closer after your post, it could very well be a juvy racer. A better pic would be awesome.

>>laws : that snake could be a juvenile yellow belly racer. It's hard to determine with that only picture. I live just south of there and to me this snake has to much pattern ( picture ) to be the speckled king . None of the holbrooki that I've seen there or in the flint hills has that much pattern. BUT they do farther southwest and even is speculative of inter-grading with splendida. Like I said > another close up pic would tell me. Laws on selling native species of Kansas : a valid hunting license to collect or a receipt to prove it was bought, a commercial permit to sell native species with 3 paper documents >
>>#1...one for the wildlife agency
>>#2...one for the buyer
>>#3...one for you to keep
>>
>>Laws regarding Kansas hog nose > NOPE ! A listed non-collected species ( at least it was ). Legal again with a receipt of purchase from out side of state and or receipt from another commercial in-state breeder and commercial permit to resale.
