el diablo Report post Posted March 13, 2017 Looks like a gopher or bull snake to me too. Simular markins as a rattler and even imitate them. They'll coil up, spead their jaw out to give it the diamond shape head and his really loud. Sounds a lot like a rattler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

el diablo Report post Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks! Hopefully he can help with the mice! That's what they're good for. Keep mice down and rattlers stay away. King snakes are even better. They actually eat rattle snakes. I've heard rattlers will actually stay away from an area where a king snake lives Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
