I went out and flipped tins yesterday and the day before. Found four black rats. The ballance was Eastern Yellowbelly Racers, ringnecks, red sided garters and worm snakes.

The first cloudy day we have I should be able to flip 20 Black Rats not to mention countless other snaqkes. They will be under the tins trying to get warm. I will take pics of the best. Shouldn't have to wait more than two weeks for a storm front complete with clouds. Some rain would help too.

The season is underway in Northern Michigan. I found my second Eastern garter yesterday in the pasture. I would think Missouri is several weeks ahead of us. I hope you find an emoryi, or two, soon. Can't wait to see pics of those. Which county are you looking in for them? Later...Terry

Well, good luck. I sure hope you find some because I've been wanting to see pics of MO specimens, as well as Arkansas and Illinois, for a long time. I wonder why they're so rare in MO?

I guess you didn't happen to see the Syspila [Red Milk} that I flipped. Has he shown up on your property.

Hi Barry. I flipped the tins where you found your Red Milk and found Ringnecks. Ringnecks are always the first ones up. I do not flop my boulders much since most weigh 300 lbs but Red Milk season will be in a few weeks..........Bill
