So I kinda wanted to start a post of your favorite find of last year, I haven't had time to herp much this year but planning to go out soon. I found this awesome cottonmouth last year in Tallahassee when I was living there. By far my favorite snake of last year and ever. Feel free to post your favorite find of last year!

Drew-
That is a stunning cottonmouth. I love that pattern.
Great photo. I'll have to dig around to see what I can contribute.

That is one seriously beautiful cottonmouth. Prettiest one I've ever seen.

Drew, I have to ask, what's going on with that cottonmouth? Is it some sort of genetic disorder I don't know of, or did it hybridize with a copperhead? It's the oddest thing I've ever seen, and one of the most beautiful.

Berkeley- Ty she is a beauty, can't wait to see what you have in store.

Zach- That is beautiful milk snake, awesome find.

Soopaman- Yeah I think it might of been hybridize with a copperhead, Idk I found her in the wild so whatever the case she is awesome.

Tamara- Ty

Was a fun day that involved this snake!


Crazy beautiful cottonmouth BTW!

this one was a lifer for me on my trip to Kentucky, and she wads a big one

Incredible snake...WOW. Thanks for sharing.

This is simply an aberrantly patterned cottonmouth, it's not a hybrid and I'd imagine the aberrency is developmental and not genetic. Just my opinion, for what it's worth. All that being said, it's a very nice looking critter.
