Nerodia VS Hog VS Indigo

tokaysrnice Sep 25, 2008 10:24 PM

This is pretty funny! Is the snake at the end of this clip Nerodia or Heterodon? I already know its not an Indigo but without snake in hand I can't tell for sure.

Eyes tell me Nerodia, Neck tells me hog, color could be either or, rostal?, the video is Blaire witch?

Nerodia fasciata pictiventris -- Fl watersnake

Racers and Hognose snakes would never be out and about after dark and their eyes are different. Labials point to N. fasciata.
