Help Identify Snake.

You should skin it & add the trim to a holster or a wallet or something. Make yourself some snakeskin TGO Thongs........

Our neighbor is a huge Paul Bunyan type of guy that runs screaming like a baby when he sees a snake in his yard.

My wife goes over and helps him because I don't like snakes either!

I'm not quite that bad. Funny thing is when I was a kid I used to play with them all the time.

Reminds me of the old saying I learned in Boyscouts "Red touch black, won't bite back; Red touch yellow, bites a fellow"

Ours was:

"Red on yellow, kill a fellow. Red on black, you're safe Jack"

It looks to be a Lampropeltis triangulum syspila (Red Milk snake). I earned my undergraduate degree in Biology, so I kind of know these things. They are indigenous to West TN.

A lamp propelled triangle saspirilla you say? Sounds deadly!

I use to find these snakes all the time in Perry County which is a little west.

I am no expert, but it looks like the kind that has no legs.....(like Lt. Dan)

[Guest crotalus01]

100% Milk snake, completely harmless. Thye only snakes you need to worry about in TN are Rattlers (easy to identify in most cases), Moccassins and Copperheads. PLEASE learn what the dangerous snakes look like so you guys dont go and kill all the harmless ones you may run across.

[Wingshooter]

I don't feel bad about killing the harmless ones. Just big worms with teeth if you ask me

They kind of creep me out, but not as bad as spiders.

I have always said I would rather kiss a snake than to even look at a spider. I hate spiders!

I am not a TN native so this may be false. But I heard that it is illegal to kill snakes here in TN.

What a crying ass shame to kill him!

[Guest clutepc]

I think a wild snakes should stay in the wild or any wild animal for that matter. I can't say I haven't been guilty of making a few pets out of wid animals, but these days I just think they are better off left in their own natural habitat.
