I truly believe the nomenclature for this snake should read Pituophis vertebralis vertebralis.]
#21 is called a Lavender Texas rat snake. (Elaphe obsoleta lindheimeri)
#23 is called a yellow anaconda. (Eunectes notaeus)
Yes that is a Leucistic texas rat snakes, (Elaphe obsoleta lindheimeri)
I have 7 Leucistic texas rat snakes, they are a bit nervous and rattle their tails a lot, but rarely bite. ( they where quite AGRO as hatchlings ). They can be mellow snakes and or little terrors, the more you interact with them, the more docile they become.
Lastly that is an Eastern Chain King Snake ( Lampropeltis getula getula )
Thanks for the kind words.
