So I found this little guy in the yard and I don’t know what he is can someone tell me

Also, he musked on me

[ilana_the_reptile_girl]

And yeah, I am aware I have very small hands

Can you tell us roughly what state, region, or province you’re in? Gloucester has little fauna in common with Arizona after all.

[ilana_the_reptile_girl]

We are in the middle of Tennessee

I could be wrong but i believe is a dekays brownsnake.

Here’s another picture if it helps

[randall_turner_jr]

Pretty sure on the Dekays.

[ilana_the_reptile_girl]

Yeah, I looked it up and it looks almost exactly like him so I think you’re right

[lumpy]

Definitely a dekays

[ilana_the_reptile_girl]

I released him, but I am worried cause it’s going to get cold tonight so I hope he’ll be ok

[banereptiles]

He should be fine, he is native and used to the temperature fluctuations around your area. What a cute little docile snake you found!

[jawramik]

He’ll be fine, it’s his native environment. What a cutie!

[ilana_the_reptile_girl]

Yeah you guys are right😅

[dlhirst]

Just don’t let him chew on you too long!
