You may not have magic powers but you're seeing a heck of a lot more snakes where you are than I can find up here!!!!!!!!!

Very nice, both the animal with much red as the darker ones.

your in the wrong State...LOL! They are usually along the trails with grass on each side. Does help to have a creek or pond nearby. I know there are alot of places to herp in the Carolinas, just need to get out & look next spring

Happy Herping

of course I was never herping anywere in the US but a friend told me overgrew scrap yards and car dumps would be fine habitats for herping

Up here we have lots of open fields and natural areas, but it hasn't been any help to me this year! Apparently the neighbourhood boys are doing well finding them, but every time I go out they've gone into hiding!

Alas, with the first deep frost just around the corner, I shall have to put my herping on hold till next year- those of you in the southern climate are much luckier than I - you can search all year!

Must keep working on convincing my husband to let me buy one (or 5 or 20...)

[drache]

get one of the neighborhood boys to catch you one

Oh, believe me, I have put the word out, but I haven't seen any snakes being brought to my door. I'm not sure the young kids really believe me when I say I want a snake- they just sort of look at me funny..........but that may not have anything to do with the snakes!!!
