>>Man, that first shot you can easily see that the corns eye socket sticks out of the skull.
Ahhhh, finally an actual morph difference! And it only took hours and hours of you whining and b*tching before you managed to come up with it! Congratulations! 
>>In every comparison shot you can see the brighter sheen on the milk.
Perceived "sheen" can easily be an artifact of lighting. Not a reliable characteristic for ID.
>>And to me the most damning thing about your comical farce is that you MIS-IDed a snake in your OWN STATE!!
I haven't ID'd anything at all except for the ultramel corn pic I posted.
As for eastern milks -- I not only have them in my own state, I have them on my own property. That doesn't mean that I have intimate knowledge of their meristics, however.
>>If you found this in your back yard maybe I could buy it from you for $25??
Not in my backyard, sorry. Unless state laws have changed recently, it's illegal to collect natives here without an education license.
>>"professional snake breeder" on the garter thing??
Yup, "professional snake breeder". In fact that professional snake breeder posted his pied garter for sale over on FaunaClassifieds, just about a month ago. He originally tried to sell it as a pied corn, of course -- until nasty evil people like me dared to ask questions.
And NOW I'm off to the barn!
