Question

This is probably a shot in the dark, but I saw what seemed to be a baby snake that had two red lines in the shape of a "V" on the top of his head. He was only about 6 inches long. Was a grey/green color the top of the head was leaf like shape and a flat nose from the top view. Please help?!?!

Answer 1

Its probably a California Ringneck Snake. There Harmless.

Answer 2

im guessing that its a California Ringneck Snake. dont worry, they arent poisonis!! (srry idk how to spell that. lol) and snakes are more afraid of humans than humans are afraid of them, (yes it sounds hard to beleive but its supposivly true)..so if u c it again, dont freak. just leave it alone cuz those snakes are good environmental friends! :)
