King vs. rattler

Hollychan Aug 29, 2008 08:53 PM

Pardon me if this ends up being a repost... my mother just emailed these pictures to me, but I don't know if anyone else has posted them before. By the way... what king is it? I was thinking Black Kingsnake or a "dull" Eastern... but I wasn't completely certain.

From an e-mail with "Debbie Rameriz"

It looks like a black Coachwhip to me.....

I knew it wasn't a king, I'm not familiar with Indigos.

Thanks for the clarification.

Definitely a Texas Indigo (Drymarchon (Sp?))

I got those emailed to me earlier this year as well.

Those pix have ben around for some time and like the one of the python caught in the barbed wire fence, will undoubtedly be passed around for months.
I'd love to find a big ol' indigo like that one when I visit TX!
