Maybe 8 to 9 inches long located in northeast Florida. Just interested to see if it is safe and what it may be. Is not aggressive. Always tries to slither away. Thanks100_7440 (Small).jpg

I wouldn't say "likely" as if it's almost certain, but it's definitely possible.

nuance, Stefan, but you're right - I'm only going by a feeling I got from my first impression

Thanks guys. He is surely staying very active. I found him in a rolled up tarp.

I also have to say he has no sort of blue tint. Florida Blue?
