I found this little guy in my backyard today.Usually by this time of year I've already seen several of these but,this was a first for me. Jeff

Nice find and Pic! I miss living back east and finding things like rough greens and ringnecks. Herping here in Utah is a lot different, we don't have quite the species diversity that other areas do so it is good to see pics from all over. Thanks and awesome find!

They're great snakes - look great in a big natural habitat enclosure. I've had some trouble keeping them alive over time though. Have you tried? Any tricks?

Our daughter spotted one out back, the first sighting in years, she ran into the house and told me she saw a baby "Limon" in our yard!

I had to explain that the ones we have here are a bit smaller than our Asian specimien....
