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!

That is one seriously beautiful cottonmouth. Prettiest one I've ever seen.
Re: Favorite find of last year!!
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.

Re: Favorite find of last year!!
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.
