That's just a garden hose.
Looks like a copperhead look alike, but def not a copper head |
|
I sorta see Hershey Kisses, either juvenile Copperhead or Corn Snake?
|
|
Non venomous. Let him pass
Nowhere near a copperhead. He's fine. No poison. |
|
Harmless. A small rate snake or something.
Harmless, unless your tenant is a cricket. |
|
Could be an eastern milk, too.
Would help if we knew what state we were talking about... |

It looks to me like a juvenile corn snake, definitely some type of rat snake and not venomous. 100% harmless.

Quoted: Harmless juvenile rat snake. Just like mine. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/399736/2D4C9A61-D7E1-4025-8C87-142903A73C99_jpe-1731289.JPG View Quote @HeyCoach Did he get his dinner frog? |

Appears to be a red garden hose with a white stripe. Certain death if you drink from it
|
|
Google juvenile black rat snake and forward picture. Too many people growing up indoors these days. Being able to ID any venomous snake in your AO is "basic dude stuff".

Quoted: Quoted: Could be an eastern milk, too. Would help if we knew what state we were talking about... NW Florida Juvenile grey rat snake. Not harmful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_ratsnake |

That rat snake is probably after the mice in your rental house.

Quoted: How do you know? I'd like to be able to tell them something other than "some guy on the internet said". View Quote In America all the venomous snakes we know of have triangular head, elliptical eyes, and pits. EXCEPT coral snek and its definitely not one of those. |

Quoted: https://www.arizonareptile.com/img/anerythristic_corn_snake_baby_l.jpg It's a harmless (and beneficial) corn snake. View Quote Unless it's an escaped pet...I doubt OP's tenant found an anerythristic corn snake in the wild. Those are selectively bred for coloration. Either way it's a Pantherophis of some sort (cornsnakes and ratsnakes). 100% harmless, even make decent pets. |

I've seen too many of it....even once "somehow" one was in my shoe
I don't know what it is...usually I chop it's head off Thank God I haven't seen an adult one yet. |

Quoted: the black circular eyes. all venomous snakes native to NA *except* the coral snake (and we know it ain't red-n-yellow) have cat's eye style pupils. That pic is good enough to zoom in a little and see that there are no slits there, just round eyes. Note copperhead here and the eyes - https://forsythnews.cdn-anvilcms.net/media/images/2019/06/18/images/FCN_Copperhead_061718_web.max-1200x675.max-752x423.jpg View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: How do you know?

Usually members cut the head off with a shovel before asking if it’s dangerous

Its a red-belly water snake. You can tell by the white stripe.
