I let $50 get away.

That's about what a corn snake (or red rat snake) this size sells for. He was on my porch. I guess the cloudy eyes means he is getting ready to shed. Just a little guy about 10" long.

Very interesting insight into something I never thought about.

After checking online, I guess they sell for anywhere between $20-50 for the baby snakes. Still, $30 for baby snakes, who'da thunk?

I didn't know my snakes very well and in Florida when I moved down here was working for a company and I thought I saw snake that I could sell. So I caught him and put him in a bottle in set it in the classroom I was working in at the time. We left the room and someone happened to walk in the room and see it in the bottle, I didn't really hide it. Well they had a fit, i thought it was just some common snake that somebody would like to have for a pet, in reality it was a pygmy rattlesnake! Oops! I guess that's why it explained he was so aggressive when I was trying to pick it up! I got written up for bringing him into the classroom and leaving it there where a kid can open the bottle and find it. I pretty much stoped catching snakes in Florida now.
