Ringnecked Snake – Identification
Q: This little fellow showed up on my patio today. Can you identify what kind of a snake this is?
A: It’s a lovely little ringnecked snake. It is completely harmless. It could even be considered a garden helper since it eats slugs and crickets. It is most active at night so you might not see it again.
