    put it in a jar w/ a stick and a leaf to simulate its natural habitat.


    make sure you poke holes in it because snakes have to breathe

    Looks like a grey rat snake. What kind of environment did you find it in? Copperheads always hang out in big heaps of trash/mulch/branches.

    Go let it back outside, they're endangered and you need a license to keep them. Rat snakes are good to keep around the yard, they'll keep all the small rodents away.

    our backyard is a heap of muclh and branches, with a creek running through it, I thought it might be a rat snake also, but I dunno, it is very aggressive.

    ummmmmm any copper head i've ever seen has had way more copper tone to it.. and not so many markings... maybe that one is just young or something... and i've for sure never seen one with a green tail.... i wouldn't kill it either way... take it somewhere remote and let it go...

    If you try and screw around with it, you can easily get bit....and it would serve you right for screwing around with a cornered snake. You do realize that some snakes can strike as far out as they are long???? If you are not used to handling snakes, don't screw around with it unless you are ready to get bit.

    Why don't you just simply call Animal Control to come and take it?

    just let it out and it will leave you alone. it doesnt want to bother you anymore than you want it. plus it will keep rodents and other pests away.

    I say gas it, chop its head off, and nail it to a tree, give all the other snakes a warning. I wouldn't take chances with anything that has the ability to kill me.
