It’s breeding season for corals around my house, had to take the boot to two so far this week. Hanger- I have only caught two coral snakes in my life, and that was about 40 years ago; haven't seen another one since. They were both less than two feet in length. Would you post a few pictures of the ones in your area? Note to self- Engage brain before opening mouth (or hitting the ENTER key/SUBMIT button). Ron Fry

jk trapper J Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 5,686 Williamsport, Pa.	I used to call them Milk Snakes also, we had a lot of them in NJ when I was a kid there. Copper heads too. I posted this photo several months ago and I was corrected by some one calling it a corn snake. I did not know they were related to King snakes. This little fella was only about 30 inches long, I sort of remember them being much longer, but I was small when we lived it that house......jk Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.
