"Now for your thinking pleasure, most snakes, the vast majority, occur in warm climates, not areas that get cool or have winters. The vast majority means, both in numbers and numbers of species. For instance, we have something like 15 species of reptiles or more, just on my property. 5 species of rattlesnakes within a 1/2 mile.
Just for fun, I saw hogs in this place in mexico, just west of 4 springs, hahahahahaha Quattro cienegas,(sp) where its gets normally 110 to 125F daily, in the summer and does not have a winter, what would the ground temps be?"
I understand farther north you go snake numbers would be less...although now this is pure speculation on my part, I don't know one way or the other, I would think live bearers vs egg layers farther north you go? How far off base am I on this?
As for the ground temps, I'd guess temps would start stabilize a few feet down.
Do snakes actually lay eggs in the open, in caves?
