>>Only one is a guttata!

If that is true, it must be a three headed snake, cause they are all guttata.

Fox
Corn
Emory's

Here is another shot of the top one, it's not a fox. Notice how the eye stripe doesn't extend past the jaw as in the other 2. And out of the three, it is the only one that bites me every time!

OK, with that last picture, I guess I can change my vote...

guttata guttata
guttata emoryi
obsoleta ssp. (based on behavior, not head shape)

Although that obsoleta looks like it has an aberrant heat (shorter and more curved than most).

zoolady Oct 18, 2004 12:32 AM

You mean I was right about them being some kind of rat snake?!
I feel so smart! LOL!
Well, I am no good with all the scientific anmes, and deffinetly couldnt have guessed the exact species like you did! But hey, I got them!! I am going to go celebrate.
